I made this elegant gift card holder card using new products from the All the Sentiments Collection from Spellbinders and Stampendous. It was such an easy card to make I fear I went overboard.
1. Emboss a piece of Nautical cardstock using the Floral Celebration Press Plate. I did this using the instructions for embossing a die on the Universal Plate System.
2. Impress two pieces of cardstock using the Floral Celebration Press Plate and Cosmic Sky, Teal Topaz and Cruise BetterPress Inks. Cut the smaller rectangle from each of these plus one small rectangle from white cardstock.
3. Cut the larger rectangle from the A2 Gift Card Holder and Envelope twice out of Adriatic Cardstock.
4. Die cut the gift card holder from a folded piece of Adriatic cardstock.
5. Stamp the sentiment from the Birthday Messages Clear Stamp Set on the white panel using Aquatic Core Ink.
6. To the inside of an A2 card base adhere the gift card holder along the fold then add the Adriatic panels the one of the impressed panels to the top and the stamped panel to the bottom.
7. Adhere the embossed panel to the front of the card with the impressed panel on top.
8. Die cut the Peony Celebration Die from Arctic, Adriatic and Gold Glitter Cardstock. Using a shim may be necessary. Cut the shadow die from vellum.
9. Adhere one outline die cut to the vellum shadow.
10. Add Aquatic Core Ink to the Arctic pieces and Nautical Core Ink to the Adriatic pieces. Inlay them onto the vellum panel.
11. Add the remaining die cut outline and the Gold Glitter outline to the one previously adhered to the vellum. Adhere to card front.
12. Hot foil a sentiment from the Cheers to You Sentiments Press Plate using Moondust Hot Foil Roll. Cut out with coordinating die and adhere to card with liquid glue and thin foam squares.
