| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #334 whose parameters were include an ATC (Artist Trading Card) in project, produce aisle colors, tree(s) element and three circles as random. I used Karen Burniston’s Mealtime Elements die set and Spellbinders’ 3D embossing folder Rosette Burst and stamp set from their Merry Moments Holiday Kit to make this side-fold A2 card.

Watch the video below to learn how I made this card.

Cardbase: I used an A2 (4.25×5.5-inches) cardbase and envelope from the Spellbinders Merry Moments Holiday Kit.The front uses a metallic .25-inch wide washi tape from my stash. Watch the video above to learn how I placed it and the hand-drawn trim.

Card Back

ATC: I first embossed a panel of white cardstock that I’d spritzed with water using mister spray bottle. After embossing the panel with the Spellbinders’ 3D embossing folder Rosette Burst, I trimmed it down to 2.5×3.5-inches. Watch the video above to see how I created the broccoli fir tree using eleven broccoli die cuts from Karen Burniston’s Mealtime Elements.

Sentiments: “Happy Holidays” inside the card was made using a clear ink and a red heat embossing powder with the stamp set set from Spellbinders’ Merry Moments Holiday Kit.

Envelope: I used an A2 (4.25×5.5-inches) envelope and the stamp set from the Spellbinders’ Merry Moments Holiday Kit to create the decorated back flap.

Gift Card Holder Wallet

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #326 whose parameters were: a dude’s card, sleigh ride colors, farm critter(s) element and pen random. I used Honey Bee Stamps Gallery Wall Gentlemen Add-On and Lovely Layers Wallet.

Watch the video below to learn how I made this card.

Wallet: I used brown, faux-leather, textured cardstock to create this wallet swiped with black ink to bring out the texture.The Wallet die set is used for all the pieces. From the faux leather cardstock, cut one of the long base piece, one of the frame pocket, one of the short strip and two of the plain pocket (trim one pocket 1″ shorter than the other.) Assemble as shown in the video above. Attach closure strip with adhesive only on the end ends of the strip and add as shown in video. Glue on brass brads/buttons to strip and tab.

Gift Card Holder: From the Wallet die set, cut the rectangular gift card holder which has four slots from some kraft cardstock. (I added the gentleman fox image as a placeholder for a gift card.)

Sentiments: I left off any sentiments on this card to personalize it for a special occasion. The two inside cards are cut with the frame pocket die in the Wallet die set and could have sentiments stamped on them. The card recipient’s initials were added to the wallet from using Karen Burniston’s Mini Alphabet and Numbers.

Gentleman Fox: Using Honey Bee Stamps Gallery Wall Gentlemen Add-On, cut one orange base silhouette, one black jacket and lapels, one set of creamy white neck and ears, one set of black nose and eyes. Assemble as shown on layering guide. Use a fine-tipped black pen to highlight the embossed details.
