Pocket Gift Tag

I don't know about you, but I have dozens of graduations and weddings to attend this summer.  Tis the season, I guess.  That's why I was so excited about the new Pocket Gift Tag die!  It seems everyone wants Gift Cards, but they haven't been much fun to wrap or open until now!  I used a Lavender note card as the base, then also cut the tag out of Lavender paper.  NOTE:  Memory Box paper is white core, which means it's white on the back.  After I cut the die, I trimmed the pocket piece off (becuase if I had just folded it up, it would have been white instead of purple).  I then reattached it at the bottom with a thin piece of tape and taped the flaps to the back as usual.  It's a very easy fix!

The hole at the top of the tag can be embellished with ribbon, but if you plan to place a gift card in the pocket, the ribbon can get in the way.  Instead, I highlighted the hole by centering it over one of the "violets" in the Candied Violets 12×12 paper, which I cut using the Debutante Frame.  Cute!

I stamped the B1359 Best Wishes phrase onto a piece of white card stock and cut it out with the Pastry Labels die.  This die creates slits in the sides, which you can embellish with ribbon or paper.  I used Violet card stock and popped the entire piece up on the pocket with foam tape. 

In the upper corner, I added a touch of interest by cutting out Violet and Lavender flowers with the Fancy Blossoms die.  I added some sparkle with Purple Stickles and used Brushed Corduroy to distress the edges of all of the pieces.

Now, all you have to do is choose a Gift Card that matches your color scheme (the hardest part of the project, probably) and then go and enjoy your summer of activities!  Enjoy!!
