Gift Wrap for Coffee Gift Card

Here's a cute way to bag up a gift card to Starbucks!  I used an 8oz cup with matching lid - the paper ones work better than styrofoam.  Then made a template for the wrap and contrasting band.  Rolled flowers, a lacy doily and a small tag hanging from the stirrer finish the project.

Valentine Paper Ribbon Wreath

This wreath uses a 5" scalloped chipboard circle with a 2" inner cutout as the base.  I cut 24 strips into 4" x 3/4" pieces and banner-cut one end of each piece.  A little trick to get the points even is to make a center cut first and then cut up from each edge.  The strips are then glued on in two overlapping layers.  This wreath is made from last year's Authentique Valentine collection and is a great way to use up scraps.  Since this is a Valentine project, I added  1 1/4" hearts but the wreath could be made for any season....summer flowers, autumn leaves, snowflakes.  The lacy die cut is from a Cottage Cuts die borrowed from my friend Donna.  She also contributed the little pearl flower.  Thanks, Donna!

Valentine Heart

I found these hearts in the Michael's dollar bin - intended to be a four page album.  I punched another hole to thread the ribbon and since the holes were not the same size, moved the bow over to one side to cover.  The flowers are made with paper from the Kissing Booth collection from Basic Grey and are triple layers that I hand rolled for dimension and secured with a small circle and a brad.  Then I layered the flowers and small leaves on top of a heart lace doily and a heart die cut. This project is the make-n-take at Pages From the Heart on Saturday January 11.
