Doggie Hug Gift Card Holders

Hello friends!! Today I am sharing these adorable Doggie Gift Card Holders. Many of you know that my hubby is a Vet and I thought these would be perfect for his dog lovin' employees! Gift cards are the way to go on so many occasions so why not spruce them up with these cuties?! 

The file is from Digi Playground and is called Schnauzer Hug Gift Card Holder. I have a couple schnauzer lovin' pals but I thought I would also use this same file to make a couple other breeds as well. Just by placing the nose higher and snipping the eyebrows you can get different terrier looks.

Here is what they look like opened up and the bottom has a pocket for the gift card. I also snipped the semi circle with my circle punch for easier access to the gift card. The pocket folds up and there are slits for the paws to stick into.

Here is the schnauzer.... I added some accents using my gelly roll pen and finished the eyes off with some glossy accents for a nice popped up shiny look. I cut his collar and heart out with red foil card stock and popped it up with 2 layers of foam tape. I inked around the layers with my distress inks to add some dimension.

He looks kind of like an Airedale pup. I stamped this sentiment and paw from the Pretty Cute Stamp set called Fur Baby. 

This little cutie kinda looks like my white fluffy dog Minnie. Just a little terrier mixed mutt!

Thanks so much for hoppin by!

Have a blessed day!

Beautiful 3d Flower Gift Card Boxes

Hello friends! I made a tutorial for a 3D Pop Up Gift Card Holder from an SVG by Digiplayground. It is so pretty I just fell in love with it so I thought I would share!

Here is the video I made:

Aren't they just gorgeous? 

 

I love how the gift card "pops up"!

The Stitched Decorative Banner Dies are from My Creative Time.

The sentiments are stamped and embossed on vellum and are from Jaded Blossom's Gift Cards Galore Stamps.

Thanks so much for hoppin by!

 I hope you have a wonderful day!

Today I have created a couple Valentine's Day cards using sentiments from the Sending Love set.

For this card I used my Cricut Artiste cartridge to cut the heart puzzle out in chipboard first and then cut cardstock pieces from a Carte Bella pad called Devoted. The heart border is from the Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake Art cartridge.

Here is a close up of this sentiment. I added a couple pearls to the swirls.

For my next card I used the Chevron card base from Digi Playground and cut it with this pretty plaid DCWV cardstock. The elephant is from the Cricut ZooBalloo cartridge. I used metallic silver cardstock for his outline and drew in the eyes.

The heart is from the Cricut Artiste cartridge. I glittered up the hearts and background with my Wink of Stella pen. This picture shows the shimmer. I added a pretty pink ribbon. 

Here is a close up of the sentiment.

I stamped the inside using the Happy Valentine's Day stamp and I also used a sentiment from the Punny stamp set.
