I wanted to share a couple of cards that I made for Christmas gifts.  I have a couple people that I always give cards to.  For these you just sponge on the colors that you want.  always start with the lightest  color.  Then I stamped my trees with the Night of Navy ink.  One the top card I stamped it twice to give the look of a forest. Then sponge around the edge of the card with the Night of Navy ink.  Now my favorite part---I took my VersaMark pad and tapped it over the entire image.  Sprinkle with Iridescent Ice & use your heat tool to set it.  It is a little hard to see all the sparkle in the picture, but is very pretty & sparkly!

Here are the directions for this candy gift card holder.  You can see in the top picture where the gift card goes.  The box will hold 8 nuggets.

Box-4 1/4 x 5 1/2"
Score 3/4" on all 4 sides -- snip once on each corner & glue to make the box.

The wrap around is 4 x 8 1/2"
Score 2 3/4, 3 5/8, 6 3/8, and 7 1/4"
Run tape down the one side & set your box down & wrap around. This way you won't get it to tight so that the box won't fit.

Card on top-7 1/2 x 3 3/4"
Score 2 1/2 & 5"
Measure up 1" on the edge & cut from there to the 5" score line.  Fold it over & use a little glue on the edge to hold it down.  Now your gift card will fit in.

I used the Snow Place stamp set to decorate the front, but you could use anything.
