Who wouldn't love to get a gift card in this adorable snowman gift card holder? If it has anything to do with a snowman, I love it! I bought a new candle holder the other day and Mr. Wonderful (aka my husband, Mark) said, "of course you did, it has a snowman on it". He knows me so well.
This was one of the five projects we made at my Christmas Gift Card Holder class last week. We had such a good time. I was able to sit down and stamp with my friends, which I absolutely loved. It has been such a long time since I did that.
To make this project you will need the following:
Marina Mist Card Stock #119682
- cut at 3 1/2" x 7 3/4" score at 1 1/4" and 4 3/4" on the 7 3/4" side and score 1/2" on each side of the 3 1/2" side
- 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" punch with the 2" circle
Whisper White Card Stock #100730
- cut enough to cut/punch a 3 1/4" circle, 2 1/2", 2 - 3/4 circle and 1/2" circle
Basic Black Card Stock # 121045
- scraps for 2 - 3/8" circles and 2 - small ovals
Night of Navy Card Stock # 100867
- cut at 3/8" x 2"
Pumpkin Pie Card Stock #105117
- 3/8" x 1" cut it at a diagonal
To assemble your snowman:
- use Soft Sky Ink and sponge around all the white pieces except the 1/2" circle on the top of his hat.
- adhere the 2 1/2" circle to the 3 1/4" circle overlapping just a little bit. The total height of the white pieces is 5"
- emboss the 2" Marina Mist circle using the Cable Knit Embossing Folder
- cut the hat at 1 1/2" high
- adhere the Night of Navy strip
- attach hat to the top of the snowman
- adhere eyes and use the White Chalk Marker to put the white marks on the eyes.
- I used a little Blushing Bride Ink and a Dauber to add color for his cheeks
- adhere the nose and feet
- wrap your ribbon around the smallest section of where the two white circle meet
- attach the holder, make sure you use song adhesive (I used Fast Fuse)
- attach the two 3/4" circles with a glue dot on the edge of the circle
- I used tiny velcro circles for the closure of the gift card holder
- attach a little bow
You now have this adorable Snowman Gift Card Holder. Isn't he stinkin cute?!

Happy Stampin!
