A Quick Gift Card Holder

I just came home from working at the home office in Utah.  It was a great experience to actually be in meetings with the team face to face instead of on zoom. 

I already knew Stampin' Up! was a remarkable company.  (There's a reason I've stayed a demonstrator for over 15 years).  Lots of people have been asking me what it's like to be "on the inside" as an employee. 

Well...the company and the job is exactly how I imagined it to be.  Absolutely no surprises. 

The passion and enthusiasm and kindness of the staff is not just a front that they pull off just for Stampin' events. People are eager to help each other and there's such a great culture of affirmation, positive mindset and hard work. I feel very blessed to be a part of the team. 

Here's a few photos from my time in the U.S. (Then keep reading below to see a quick card project)

What a great welcome...a desk to work at...with snacks!

When I arrived back home I remembered I had to send out my Team STIC secret santa gift card exchange.  

I love that we play and enjoy fun activities on the team! 

Anyone on team STIC could participate and I think it will be fun to see all the different creations! 

I grabbed some paper that I haven't yet played with but I LOVE. 

It's the Celebrate everything 12X12 paper which is a host exclusive.  You can nab it with your free host dollars that you earn from hosting or shopping when orders total $200 or more. 


Doesn't this paper make you happy?/

I grabbed the paper, did a quick pinterest search for inspiration and this is the gift card holder I created.  The pocked is big enough to hold money or treats or maybe a small hot chocolate packet! 

It's so easy to make! 

I just cut the designer paper 5 1/2" X 12"

Scored at 4" either side on the long side

Grabbed a scrap strip of Granny Apple Green cardstock to create the belly band to keep it closed. 

Then I Used the Handmade Wishes stamp set and coordinating punch to hide the belly band seam


Check out the inside: 



I just cut off on a diagonal a piece of the DSP to create the pocket effect. 

Ta Dah!  So fast and easy!  I hope my Team STIC secret sister loves her packaging for her gift card!
