I’m super excited about today’s project. I saw this idea in a magazine a few weeks ago and I couldn’t wait to make one. It’s a ornament on one side…and then a gift card holder on the back side. I think my kids are going to get a kick out of having a ornament on the tree with a hidden gift card inside.
My plans are to use the GoGo boots alphabet die and personalize it with their names…but we’ll see …it might not look how I think it will 🙂
You can hardly see the "Season of Cheer" Rub-ons I added…..I was so excited to use the chocolate color but next time I’ll use the white. I’ll have to try the Chocolate with another color!
I’ll be filming a tutorial on this next week…it’s not hard…but it does take time. The ornament is a 4" round coaster (you can find them on my Chic n’ Scratch Shack). On one side I covered it with the Bella Rose Designer Paper….then on the back of the coaster I attached a Chocolate Chip Scallop Circle made with the Big Shot Die (it’s #4 in the mini catalog). Then I covered the chocolate scallop with Bella Rose paper. It sounds like a lot but it’s really not….I just have a hard time wording it 🙂
Here’s a picture of the back side……The gift card just tucks inside. If you wanted to hide it completely you could cut your paper further up.
Have a Fantastic Friday!

p.s. my baby sister was supposed to fly in last night but my dad had a set back and she needed to stay home. I’m sad but also worried about daddy!
What a great gift idea-two gifts in one. Very cute! Sorry to hear your dad isn’t well-your family will be in my prayers.

Angie, I love your blog and all the great creations. I definitely have to make some of these ornaments.
LOVE this idea..super fast and easy it looks like. I’m sure my daughter would LOVE!! to see this hanging on the tree come Christmas morning..even with $$$ folded up if not using a gift card!! (who wouldn’t eh??!!!) Thanks for sharing!
Hope things work out so that you get to see your sister (SOON!!) and that your Dad improves so as to allow her to do so. Keeping you ALL in my thoughts and prayers.
