step by step instructions flat back gift card holder

This gift card holder showcases the lovely Penciled Pear stamp set. The line art images are just gorgeous. Stamp the large pear image in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the Basic Beige cardstock. Color with Light and Dark Lemon Lolly Stampin’ blends from the middle towards the right side. Then go in with Light and Dark Lemon Lime Twist. Next use Light and Dark Wild Wheat. And finish off the left side with Light and Dark Blackberry Bliss. Color the leaf with Light and Dark Mossy Meadow with an overlay of Light Lemon Lime Twist to brighten it up. Stamp the line of pears at the bottom of the Basic Beige back liner and color in the same manner as the large pear. Set aside.

Stamp the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set on the small piece of Basic Beige cardstock in Versamark ink and Wild Wheat ink. Emboss and heat set with Clear embossing powder. Set aside.

assembly

With the Season of Elegance strip gold foil side up and in landscape position, fold the right scoreline as a valley fold. Fold the remaining scoreline as a mountain fold. Open the strip back up and punch out a finger hold with an oval or circle punch top center of the middle rectangle. Squeeze liquid glue around the sides and bottom of the center panel. Adhere the left panel to it, creating a pouch.

Adhere the Wild Wheat mat to the Blackberry Bliss base. Then adhere the gift card holder to the Wild Wheat mat with the pouch hanging freely on the left side. Adhere the pear line Basic Beige piece to the back of the base.

Tie a length of Wild Wheat ribbon around the gift card pouch on the left side and knot. Pop the focal point pear up on Dimensionals and adhere to the front. Open the gift card holder and adhere the sentiment inside at the top right of the pouch.

The pear practically glows. And that dreamy abstract pattern in shimmering gold foil, all layered over a deep blackberry bliss base sets the perfect elegant tone. Visit my online store to get the stamp set and other supplies today.
