Today we're using the letter "P" as our prompt in
Beccy's Place 30 Days of Christmas and I chose one of Beccy's lovely
Poinsettia images. I made another gift card holder made from embossed,
Pine Green CS. The image is cut with a
Pin
Point die and I also used a die to cut
Pine needles for the background. The folder is tied with
Peppermint Candy, red and white twine. This one is done in my favorite Christmas color combo of red and green. It's also another of my favorite traditional Christmas images which work better (I think) for adult gifts than cute-sy, childish images.
Just to show you how the inside of the folder looks, although this photo is of another folder I made.
Here's a link to the
YouTube video I used to make these.

WOW! Gorgeous design. Thanks for sharing with us at Colour Crazy.
Fantastic gift card holder NC, I agree with you about the more adult themed images. Love the traditional colour scheme and the wonderful embellishments, the striped twine is really fabulous.
