Welcome to the All Star Tutorial Bundle Blog Hop! 

Today we have a wonderful hop showcasing additional projects we created using the Mediterranean Blooms Suite Collection featured in our August 2024 tutorial.  I hope you enjoy my creation.

Handmade Gift Card Holder

Are you looking for the perfect way to make your gift cards feel extra special? In today’s tutorial, I’m excited to show you how to create a stunning all-occasion gift card holder using the Citrus Blooms stamp set and coordinating dies from Stampin’ Up! Whether it’s for a birthday, thank you, or just because, this project adds a personal touch that your friends will love.

Why You’ll Love Making This Project

Personal Touch: This gift card holder is more than just a place to put a card; it’s a handmade keepsake that shows how much you care. The time and effort you put into creating it will make your gift unforgettable.

Versatile Design: The design can be adapted for any occasion. By simply changing the pattern paper and cardstock colors, you can create a unique holder for birthdays, holidays, or any special moment.

Use Up Scraps: If you’re like me, you probably have a stash of beautiful paper scraps that you just can’t part with. This project is perfect for using those scraps creatively, making each holder unique.

Easy to Follow: In the video tutorial included below, I’ll walk you through each step, from cutting elements from the Mediterranean Blooms pattern paper to layering them on either Daffodil Delight or Pumpkin Pie cardstock. I’ll also show you how to string the ribbon around the layer and through the hole in the label die-cut with the Greetings of the Season Dies.

Take a stroll through a beautiful Mediterranean town with the Mediterranean Blooms Suite Collection! Tangy citruses, tilework designs, and charming sentiments are a great addition to any crafting collection. Die cut the fruit images to create sweet centerpieces on your cards and color them using your favorite watercoloring technique. Turn the lemon, orange, and tilework paper into beautiful card bases, backgrounds, paper boxes, and gift tags. Each craft you create using this suite will help friends and loved ones glimpse into the sunny Mediterranean coastline.

The only thing you’ll love more than the products in the Mediterranean Blooms Suite Collection are the projects you’ll create using them. If this timeless product suite is not already on your gotta have it list, I highly recommend adding it. 

Each piece is in the suite is designed to work with and complement one another. The Mediterranean Blooms Suite Collection includes:
