Wishing Wedded Bliss (& Surprise)

I was recently paid to make a couple of simple gift card holders...
No specifics, just that it should be "wedding".
Will add some of these on my Etsy site soon! :)

Here's what I came up with:
(The smaller inset pics are of the inside view)

























My fave one is the top one. Which one is yours?

A few details:
Happy I Do Day: Brushed silver cardstock embossed with SU's Elegant Lines embossing folder. The tag is made by heat embossing the words silver, from a GREAT new set, "Word Play."  Do you see the bling I added on the ring?  LOVE IT! :)  Ribbon is our basic gray taffeta.

For the Newlyweds: Rich Razzleberry cardstock with the beautiful "Cottage Wall" DSP (retired), and white scallops at bottom. Added a sentiment from "Teeny Tiny Wishes" punched with our word window punch, layered on modern label punch. Added a flower & pearl from the Pretties Kit (retired).

Insides: A simple inside...Paper up top to write on.  Two glue dots left on the strip on bottom. All you have to do is peel off the strip, attach your gift card, and write a little note on top! :)

Well, what do you think about these gc holders?

ALSO....tomorrow's a special day...can you guess why?

The Small Print (All Stampin' Up)
Stamps: Word Play, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Encore Silver, Rich Razzleberry
Cardstock/Paper: Brushed Silver, Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Cottage Wall DSP
Accessories: Silver embossing powder, Jewels Rhinestone, Grey taffeta, Dimensionals, Multiple punches, Pretties Kit

Thanks so much for stopping by, and have a GREAT day!
(oh, and be sure to stop by tomorrow for a special surprise!)

  3. Very nice! I like the colors in the second one, but I think the silver one is really elegant. Hard choice!

  4. Really like them both.......very nice and clean lines. My favourite though is the silver one (1st) and I just might use your idea for the October wedding I'm going to. TFS!
