Here's a throwback to my interactive scrapbook days but I apply it to a gift card holder. When I decided to do this, I didn't realize how many A2 size pattern paper panels I would create. It was over 50 for the 12 gift card holders I created. Tutorial on how to put this together is in the comments.

Oh my goodness! I bought some Catherine Pooler inks and they picked my order during the filming of a short. 💃 Catherine included a hand written note and a gift. So exciting!!!!

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

This is the last of my Christmas cards for this year. Whew! Started mid August and finished up the week before Thanksgiving. My next video will be a gift card holder I’m making. Two versions: one really complicated and then one super fast.

I needed some gift tags for the gift card holders I created and these fit the bill. Super easy and fun to create. Plus I have a hack in my video on YouTube that takes the layered stencil with etching to name each layer and makes them readable. Check out the link in the comments if you want to see the creation process and the hack.

I forgot to schedule this post yesterday. I CASE’d a fellow card maker’s design and added some of my own elements to make it mine. I ran out of time and needed about 20 more cards. This is 11 of those and 12/1 is the video for the second card design I made.

So I wanted to make a birthday card for my mother-in-law with yellow roses. So this is what I came up with. The focal point is one layer and was easy and fast to put together.

I picked up the winter scene and cardinal sheets at a stamp convention in October this year and finally got around to making the cards. I didn't pick up the card fronts that the vendor had for sale so I had to scramble and create a template that would cut out the square in the exact same place every time. Whew!

Stamp On It

I had a viewer comment on a recent video that I needed to try a Jennifer McGuire technique on mass producing card panels with stencils. I tried to find her tutorial but had no luck. So I created a jig which I show how to make in my video and create these cards from the panels.

With the upcoming holiday season, it's always nice to have thank you cards on hand. And what better way to say thank you than these cutie penguins.

I made the Christmas card in a YouTube tutorial (see the comments for the link) and then created the tag off camera using the same supplies and added the Gina K Designs stamp set A Little Something for the to and from on the tag.

This incentive stamp set from Gina K for the month of November is just so stinking cute. Had a blast casing this design from Kathleen Sanders and making it my own by adding my own twist to it. Link for the tutorial is in the comments.
