Gift Voucher Card


Card/Paper: Very Vanilla, Elegant Eggplant, Certainly Celery
Ink:
Old Olive, Elegant Eggplant
Stamps:
Soft Summer, Live Your Dream, Fresh Cuts
Other:
1/4" Certainly Celery Grosgrain ribbon


Just for once, the card I had in my head ended up as I envisaged it. So often I get side tracked along the way, and the card evolves into something completely different to my original idea.

I used the lovely soft flower image from Live Your Dream - it's the outline part from this two step set. It's done with Old Olive ink, but I stamped off once on scrap paper first to lighten it. The strip of Elegant Eggplant at the bottom is simply scored to make a frame for the ribbon. A quick sentiment with the oval punches, and two little butterflies, and it was done.

The inside is stamped to match, with a pocket to hold a Stampin' Up! gift voucher - redeemable only through me. This one shows £25, but I can create them in any amount on request. Use the contact me tab at the top of my blog if you would like to purchase one. (UK only.)

Just beautiful Joanne. A very simple yet attractive card. I can see making these in bulk, and maybe varying the colors. Thanks for the inspiration!

Hugs,
Jennifer
