Gift Cards (3X3)

We made 3X3 inch cards in Monday night's stamp club. These are cards to go on gifts bags and boxes. I wanted to show the club that these are very quick and simple cards. You can sit down and do a few in one hour and save them for holidays, birthdays, and other gifts. The reason I thought about this is, when I wrapped my Christmas gifts this year I had full intentions of putting hand made gifts cards on each gift. . . do you think I made even one???? Well of course not, by the time I realized what was going on it was too late and I was so busy with everything else that I didn't have time to make even one. So, my challenge to all you stampers out there tonight, is to take one hour and make a few simple gift cards. They don't have to have 14 layers, or use some new fancy technique. . . just make a few cards. Put them in your wrapping paper container or closet, and then when you need them they will be ready. . . . let me know how it goes! :)


here are the ones I made Monday night.


stamp set: Brocade Basics / ink pad: basic brown / card stock: soft sky, river rock



stamp set: Embrace Life / card stock: soft sky, river rock / printed paper: Le Jardin

stamp set: Nursery Necessities / card stock: soft sky, river rock / printed paper: Le Jardin

As always, thanks for looking. I hope you are having a wonderful new year!
