Hello and welcome to Day 3 of the i {heart} papers 2nd Birthday Bash! If you missed the posts from earlier this week please scroll down so you don’t miss a thing. It’s not too late to play along so go back to Tuesday’s post on Kate's blog and start there.
You’ll want to be sure you participate in the scavenger hunt/blog hop to earn your 20% off coupon (and see some really amazing projects from 25 incredible designers!).
Today’s challenge is a gift card holder challenge. Deb is hosting it and has some links for templates and ideas on her blog, as well as a Mr. Linky for you to leave your project on to be entered into the drawing for today. Please be sure to tag your uploads with IHPBB10GC. The deadline to enter is Friday morning, 3AM EST.
Winners for each day will be randomly drawn from the day's challenge entries, and everyone who plays along, either with the challenges and/or the scavenger hunt will be eligible for the grand prize drawing that will close the festivities tomorrow!
Additionally, ALL orders placed during the Bash (Oct 19-21) will receive a free goodie bag of surprise merchandise. The more you spend, the bigger your goodie bag!
Also, there will be random drawings for additional prizes from our PaperCraft Planet group members, our mailing list (sign up on the right side of the homepage) and our fans on Facebook. If you are on all three, then you’ve got triple the chances to win!
Here's my project for today's challenge. I made a simple birthday gift card holder with lots of sparkle. The base is a 4 ¼” x 11” piece of pink cardstock, scored at 4 ½”, 5 ½”, and 6 ½” with my ScorBuddy. I folded the score marks to make a place to hold the gift card (see the second photo below).
The front of the gift card is covered with a panel of SEI’s Jocelyn designer paper. I added a super sparkly self-adhesive birthday cake accent, layered over a pair of circles to set it off a little from the pattern. The “celebrate” sentiment from Unity’s It’s Your Day kit is stamped in black ink on a tab that I added as a closure (it slips underneath one of the patterned paper panels on the inside of the gift card holder). I added a piece of matching magenta glimmer ribbon, tied in a girlie bow, as an accent.
The inside of the gift card features the same patterned paper. I used redline tape to secure the scored sections together so they’d pop up when the card is opened. I cut a notch to hold a gift card using a rectangle die. The card slides right in to the notch and is ready to go!
Materials Used:
from i {heart} papers: SEI Jocelyn designer paper, Petaloo Dazzlers 2 tier cake embellishment, Spellbinders circle and rectangle dies, Couture Cardstock white Copic blending cardstock, Unity Stamp Co. It’s Your Day Kit, Memento Tuxedo Black ink, Creative Impressions magenta glimmer ribbon, ScorBuddy, i {stick} papers redline tape, Bow Easy
other: Melon Mambo cardstock (Stampin’ Up!)
