Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hello Friends and Happy March 1st! It is Dana here today sharing two gift card holders perfect for St. Patrick's Day...or just change the paper and they are perfect for anytime you need a little gift!!

I started by using the Coffee Card Gift Holder Honey Cuts Dies. I am telling you right now...you need this die set!! If you ever give a gift card to your favorite coffee shop then this die is for you. I started by die cutting the main cup from green cardstock. I then cut the top piece again with paper from the Doodlebug Design: Lots O' Luck Paper Pad. I trimmed the bottom (overhang) off and attached it to my green cardstock base. If you use a full size sheet of paper you can skip this set...I wanted the pattern and I only had it in 6 x 6.

Here is what that looks like:

Next, I began working on my stamped images. I used the Pretty Pink Posh: Best Of Luck Stamp Set to stamp my leprechauns. I colored them with a variety of Copic Markers and used the Pretty Pink Posh: Best of Luck Dies to cut them out.

To hold the die closed (you don't need adhesive...this is why I love this die) I die cut the band that goes around the cup (the band holds everything in place). I then heat embossed my sentiment with gold embossing powder and attached my stamped image with Lawn Fawn: glue to the top of the band.
