Thanks so much for the excellent challenge, Lynn! I love the challenge but rarely get the chance to play.
This is the first of 3 gift card holders that I need to make. Mine wouldn't stay closed, so I had to use ribbon to tie it shut!
I used purple metallic paper and stamped the Poinsetta wheel with versamark, then embossed with white ep. The sentiment is versamark and vintage violet (I hoarded, lol) embossed with polysparkle ep. I punched the snowflakes and added pearls and ribbon.
Thanks for looking!!!

Your embossing and the vision you had to create this card is fascinating, Darla. Beautiful white ep goes so well with your 2 purple snowflakes. What a great card this is!
