Day 23 - St Nicholas Gift Card Holder Tag

ST NICHOLAS GIFT CARD HOLDER TAG

I love putting unique and beautiful gift tags on my packages and always wish I had more time to create them 

BUT...

 it is always easy when you use fun Ephemera along with matching Christmas Papers. 

Begin by embossing and inking a scallop chipboard square. 

Add pattern paper and a piece of embossed pattern paper to top of chipboard. 

Add second piece of chipboard that has been covered with pattern paper to top along with a scallop border. 

Take a gift card lay on back side of Ephemera; add pop up strips to the sides and bottom. (Give enough room for the gift card.)

Add prepared Ephemera piece to front of tag. 

Add bits and pieces of Ephemera around prepared tag. 

Add bow.

Tuck in some thread ribbon bows under Ephemera. 

Add small flowers with enamel dots to tag. 

Make sure to tuck your gift card it. 

Add to package or give as a gift.
