MFTeaser - B Merry

Welcome to day four of seven fabulous days of MFT teasers!

Today is all about gift cards with the Gift Card Greetings stamp set and the Gift Card Pocket - Vertical Die-namics.


When designing my card I played around with putting the gift card pocket on the front, but in the end I decided to place it on the inside because the colours on the gift card itself didn't really coordinate with my project. I used Versamagic Pixie Dust ink to stamp the dots from the Darling Dots stamp set onto Whip Cream cardstock then I added a piece of striped paper from the Fancy Pants Winter Wonderland collection. I layered the base onto Paver Red cardstock and added a strip of Paver Red grosgrain ribbon.

For the focal point I started by stamping the "B Merry" sentiment from Gift Card Greetings with Versamagic Pixie Dust ink onto the new Paver Red cardstock then I cut it out. I used the Decorative Circle Tag STAX Die-namics to cut out the corrugated cardboard base for the focal point then I added a circle of Pink Lemonade which I cut out using the Circle 1 STAX Die-namics. I added a Paver Red felt bow using the Dainty Bows Die-namics and it was a snap to assemble using my detail glue gun.

On the inside I used the Gift Card Pocket - Vertical Die-namics to cut out the Paver Red pocket then I stamped another sentiment from Gift Card Greetings. I used the Snow Drifts Die-namics to cut out the two Pink Lemonade drifts along the bottom of the card.
