Today’s the day! My wonderful SU Demo friend, Janet, is working the last day of her long career at Darden! To celebrate her retirement, I made this card with the Stampin’ UP! Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set. I sure hope it got to her before she reads this post!! If not…Congrats to you, Janet- it’s in your mailbox! It would be just like us to have you see it here first…lol.

You know I love Janet if I fussy cut something!

It is actually a gift card holder. Start with a 4-1/4″ x 11″ card base and score at 1-1/4″ and 5-1/2″ on the 11″ side. Fold up the 1-1/4″ section to make the pocket. I printed off a gift card for her, folded it in half, and tucked it in the pocket. I stamped on it to finish it off:)

The sentiment on the folded gift certificate is from the 2020 Sale-a-bration Stamp Set called Sending Thoughts- the font worked well with the Beautiful Friendship sentiment. I think the Ornate Frames Dies were just perfect with the stamped flowers.

After folding up the pocket, the card becomes a 4-1/4″ square. The Seaside Spray layers on the front and inside are 4″ squares and the Very Vanilla layers are 3-3/4″ squares. The Misty Moonlight Square around the largest Stitched Shapes Square is the largest in the Layering Squares.
Thanks for buzzing by, friends…
