Holiday Treasure Countdown

Each year we offer a Holiday Treasure Class, which is one of my favorite classes. We create a bunch of fun Christmas-Themed gifts, tags, and what-not's for gift-giving. This year we made 5 creations and I thought it would be fun to share them here on our blog. Countdown Number 1 are Ornament Gift Card Holders which were inspired by Vickie Burdick. I copied her great layout for my Merry Winter Ornament... the merry snowman from the Merry Winter stampset looks so cute in this layout.


Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler
DSP: Frostwood Lodge
Ink: Early Espresso; Markers: Cherry Cobbler, Pear PIzzaz, Pumpkin Pie
Punches: 2-3/8" Scallop Circle, 2-1/2" Circle, 1-3/4" circle, Scallop Edge, Round Tab, Word Window, Itty Bitty 4-leaf, Hand punch
Big Shot: Scallop Circle, Snowburst Textured Impressions Folder
Stamp Set: Merry Winter

I went with a gingerbread look to create the Gingerbread Ornament, using one of MDS "Sweet Season - Gingerbread" digital stamps for the focal point.

These will make fun gift-givers to hang on the tree this year.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Early Espresso, Riding Hood Red
Ink: Riding Hood Red
Punches: Decorative Label, Round Tab, Itty Bitty scallop
Big Shot: Scallop Circle, Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder, Little Leaves Sizzlit
