Hello! Today I’m excited to share with you my first set of cards for The Hedgehog Hollow! When I opened this month’s box, I was delighted to see a pocket stamp AND die…and I was immediately drawn to creating a GIFT CARD pocket for Father’s Day.
If you haven’t seen what is included in this June 2018 Hedgehog Hollow box, click here to see my unboxing video!
The first card is a more formal card, with a white shirt and handkerchief sticking out of the pocket. I used the papers included in the box for the handkerchief! My dad LOVES chocolate so a gift card to See’s Candies was just the thing! A gift card fits perfectly inside the pocket.
The “buttons” are punched out of the same paper to match the handkerchief. And that BEAUTIFUL “dad” die is just the right size for a card. I used the embossing powder included (when you are a regular subscriber to the box) to create a metallic die cut. I love this technique.
Here you can see that beautiful color of the embossing powder!
Of course I had to create a separate card using the DENIM stamp that is included. I used Distress Oxide ink in “Faded Jeans” (isn’t that just the perfect name for this color and project?!) to ink up the panel and then I stamped over it using the same color.
On this card I used some copper eyelets to add to that pocket. So easy and adds the real look of jeans, doesn’t it?
I created a video for you to see the process below, or watch on YouTube:
I hope you enjoyed these projects today. They are fun and easy to put together. Add a gift card and you have a perfect Father’s Day card and present!
