This little flower pot holds more than posies...pull up on the flowers and you've got a nifty little hiding spot for a gift card. I've included the template for the flower pot in the tutorial for easy assemblages. Happy crafting!
As soon as I heard the theme for this project was gift card holders, I immediately thought of a pocket card. Of course with my own little twist. It is the perfect way to be a little bit 'sneaky' with an unexpected gift...as you will see from my tutorial. Enjoy!
Some times it is just so much simpler to give that picky Teenager a gift card than buy a gift. I never know what to buy my nieces mainly because they have everything twice over already! I decided to create a slider card and figured that I could hide a gift card within the mechanism.

A few days after we were asked to do an upcycling project I got hold of an old and ugly plastic picture frame. This technique using Creative Medium and Embossing Powder is very easy to do and gives a true metallic retro effect.
Working with the Gelli Plate is one of the hottest trends right now, and I have to admit that I don't own one. I've really wanted to experiment with the monoprinting technique, and I soon discovered the the IMAGINE Crafts Craft Mat is perfect for achieving the same results!
Gelli Printing is a firm favorite of mine because it offers the ability to just play and experiment - and with the wonderful inks and mediums available it is such a joy creating textures. A great alternative to the Gelli Plate is to use the Craft Mat to create faux Gelli prints for some quick cards.
