Joy of Sets--Christmas 2020

Welcome to the last official post of the Joy of Sets Blog Hop. This was the FIRST blog hop I joined and I have learned so much since then. I need to give Angie McKenzie a special shout out for all of her behind the scenes assistance she gave me in the beginning! I look forward to sharing creativity with her in some new future projects, so stay tuned for details!

This month our theme is Christmas songs and it works well as I have been sharing a Card a Day in December all month long, so this will officially also make my 12th holiday card share! One of my favorite Christmas songs is from Michael Buble and his version of White Christmas. We love a good cup of hot chocolate in my home and I always give my husband a Tim Horton’s gift card during the holiday season. I love to listen to Christmas songs together with the fake fireplace on the television and drink yummy drinks together!

My project is a card and a gift card holder. I can be one or the either and is a card design that I use over and over!

You start with your typical card base. 8 1/2 x 5 1/2. Score in half at 4 1/4 and then on one side make a score line at 1 1/4. This become the panel that you will flip forward to create a pocket.

There is no adhesive keeping this pocket closed, however you need to use a ribbon or in this case, Linen Thread, to keep it closed.

I rounded all four edges with the Detailed Trio punch and added a strip of Designer Series Paper from the Heartwarming Hugs to the panel. I also rounded the edges on this.

I absolutely loved the sentiment, “You’re the Marshmallows to my Cocoa”, and I knew I needed to add it to the Whisper White card stock pull out piece. It is cut to 4 x 5 1/4. I stamped the sentiment in Crumb Cake ink.

The best thing about the Warm Hugs Bundle are the teeny tiny coffee mug, candy canes, and christmas tree that all have little dies to cut them out. I love the layering options in this bundle too and the variety of sentiments.

I added a bit of bling to the middle of the little coffee cups for some glitz! This is the perfect card or gift card holder for those warm drink loving friends or family members in your life.
