November Giftcard Holder class

I guess I started this post and never finished it...so sorry! Wanted to share with you anyway the gift card holders we made at our November class.

Our November gift card holder class was so much fun!  Here are the projects...the first GCH was made using the Envelope Punch Board.  We used a 7 1/2 X 7 1/2 cardstock and we made the first score mark at 3 3/8.  I cut off one of the flaps and glued the other tabs together to form a sleeve.  Decorated it with the Wonderous Wreath stamp set and cut out with the coordinating dies.  You can purchase it in a bundle too!  I believe that this set is still available for a limited time.  Check the Stampin up! website/
This is what it looks like when you take out the insert.
The next GCH was inspired by Dawn Olchefski.  The cut out word "Joy"  came from the Wonderful Wreath framelit set.
Here is a view of the GCH out of the sleeve.  I really love this especially because it was easy to make!
This gift card holder was made with our Chevron gift bag. We folded it in half so that it made 2 pockets, one for the tag with gift card and the other for the a little note.
Here's a view of a gift card tag and note.
This is one of my favorite gift card holders from the class.  This fun holder was made by Lorri Heiling.  You can check out her blog HERE.  Thanks Lorri!
This is what it looks like when you pull out the insert.  Very cute!

Found most of these ideas through Pinterest, but this idea, someone recalled that we did something like this before...I don't remember when we made it, but I still love the idea.  I used an oldie but goodie stamp set which is no longer available (sorry!)
Here's the inside where you put the gift card!

These were the five gift card holders that we made.  Thanks for stopping by to see my post!  More delinquent posts to follow!

January Class Sneak Peek!

Happy New Year!!  Can't believe it's already 2015!  I hope everyone had a nice holiday season.  It's now time to get back into the swing of things and time for another class!  This is everyone's favorite Stamping time of the year where we celebrate SALE-A-BRATION!  Briefly, the reason why sale-a-bration is everyone's favorite time of year is because for every $50.00 you spend (before shipping and tax), you can earn one free product from the sale-a-bration catalog!  If you would like to receive the sale-a-bration catalog or the new Occasions catalog, send me an email and I will send one to you!
This month's class projects will include projects using some of the sale-a-bration products as well as products from the Occasions catalog.  Typical me, didn't get a chance to prep samples for the class until yesterday.  I hope this is not a start to another year of last minute planning, believe me, I am trying hard to get things done on time.  Class is this weekend - Saturday, January 17 and Sunday, January 18 at my home from 10:00 a.m.  Please RSVP as soon as possible to save your space for these classes.  Here is a sneak peek of the projects we will be making.  In addition, we will be making tags using the all new Ornate Tag Topper punch (another tag topper!! Yippee!)
Class fees will stay at $25.  Demonstrators pay $12 and kits in the mail $35.  You will receive everything you need to complete the class projects.  I know you will love using all of these brand new items!!  Please be sure to bring your tool kit to class.  Having your own adhesive and scissors and whatever tools you use to craft (including your reading glasses!).  I am looking forward to sharing these projects with you as well as sharing the new products!  Hope you will join me for this fun class!
I will be working on some late posts from our December holiday party (the projects) as well as some other posts to share.  Thanks for stopping by today!
