Just For You — A Beautiful 3D Floral Gift Card Bag

Hello crafty friends!  Today I’m sharing this super adorable gift card holder that features Honey Bee Stamps NEW 3D Pop-Up Bag and the Lovely Layers: Mini Spring Florals!

Apologies if anything looks “off” with this post!  We had a storm on Saturday evening with TONS of lightening!  We must’ve had a strike very close to our home.  I am using my iPad to write this!  Ugh!!  Had to order a new Logic Board for my not one-year-old iMac, our main TV is out, garage door wouldn’t open (but got that figured out, thankfully).  Once I get my computer up and running, I will come back to check this out and correct anything that should be.

The first thing I made is the 3D Pop-Up Bag using the NEW gorgeous Garden Party paper pad!  The papers in this pack are so beautiful, I had a difficult time choosing just one!  To make my bag more sturdy, I layered the patterned paper with 80# Neenah with some double sided adhesive. 

Then I used the dies in the 3D Pop-Up Bag to cut out the pieces.  I die cut the handles from some brown cardstock in my stash.  I folded the die cut pieces on the score lines using a bone folder to help get a good crease.  Next I used Bee Creative glue to adhere the pieces together. Be sure to give the glue time to set up before moving on.

I added a little tag sentiment by stamping a in black pigment ink from the Tag You’re It: Luxury stamp set.  Then I chose on of the tag dies from the Accessorize It: Tagged to cut out the sentiment.  I glued the tag to the bag.  I used some twine I have and tied it into a little bow to glue at the top of the tag. 

I think this turned out to be so pretty!  How awesome would it be to receive a gift card inside this sweet package?!!

Thank you so very much for stopping by today!  I hope you have a wonderful and crafty day!!

A Little Something For You

Hello friends!  Today I'm sharing this card that is part of Honey Bee Stamps' Instagram Hop to celebrate their new Style In Bloom release!!  This card features the beautiful, and so very versatile, Lovely Layers: Wrap It Up die set.

If you came here from the hop, thank you!!  If you'd like to join in to see more awesome inspiration, and your chance for a prize, hop on over to my Instagram!!

I created a heat embossed panel using the floral from the Bloom and Buzz stamp set.  The embossing is a pretty pale sparkling pink, and unfortunately, the sparkle doesn't show in the photos.

This panel is adhered to an A2 card base with glue.

I die cut some pretty checked patterned paper from the Gingham Happy Hearts paper pad with the dies from the Lovely Layers: Wrap It Up dies.  These dies make the cutest bow!!!!!  There are also dies that cut the same bow but without scalloped edges.

For the sentiment, I first die cut a tag from the Accessorize It: Tagged die set.  Then I stamped the sentiment from the Luxurious Friend stamp set in black pigment ink.

I used the ½" Honeycomb foam adhesive dots to adhere the tag, tucking the edge just under the bow.

This sweet Lovely Layers: Wrap It Up bow dies can be used for any occasion!  How pretty this would be in a mirror cardstock for the holidays?!

I'm so happy you stopped by today.  I hope you will join me over on my Instagram to check out the details of the hop!
