Cocoa Treat Envelope Gift Card Holder

Hello Everyone:

Can you believe how close Christmas is getting?  I needed to make a gift card holder for my brother and fell in love with this Merry Christmas Santa printable Cocoa Treat envelope.  I decided to make mine into a gift card holder.  I like to jazz up gift cards and think this will do the trick perfectly.

I added stickles roughly to his beard and eyebrows to give them some dimension.  Because this treat envelope is so lovely and is for a man, I didn't do much other decorations than creating two hang tags, one with the Santa from the back of the package and another tag with my brother's name on it.

I printed two of the files and then was able to easily decorate any way in which I wanted to.  That is the beauty of Deena's files, once they are yours, you can print as many as you need to.  I'll be back later this week with another project.  Have a great day everyone and hope this holiday season is magical for you.

Blue Christmas

Hello! It's Gracie, and today I have a vintage Christmas Santa tag I loved to make. The printable I used is called Hang Tags - Starry Night Santa. Also, don't forget, all printables at www.ewenmeprintables.com are 50% Off now thru 12/2/14.

The background of the images is blue so I thought I'd use a pretty color combination to make a masculine Christmas tag.

I cut the Santa tag and mounted it on two pretty die cut labels. Then I stamped and heat embossed some swirls on a beige tag. The swirls were embossed with pearlescent powder, so they sparkle like glitter. I applied blue distress ink to the tag, to add a nice contrast. Finally I adhered it all to the embossed tag and added a piece of beige paper cord that coordinates nicely with the design.

This is my last post as part of the Ewe-N-Me design team, so I want to take a minute to thank everyone! Thanks so much for giving me the chance to share my little creative ideas with you.

Big hug, and good bye!
