I love the 4.25x4.25 size for this gift card holder using some of the new thyme stitched ribbon and holiday thyme designer paper.
I made a dry embossing template out of a piece of scrap cardboard for the embossed circles, so that's why they aren't just *perfect*, plus this was my first attempt at dry embossing.

This is an awesome card!! Darn, I passed on ordering the Snow Flurries! Just may have to place another order. Love all the different techniques and clever to make your own embossing template.!

This is so cute! Love the paper piercing on the scallop edge. What a great tip for dry embossing.

I really like this look, with the dry embossing. I think you did a wonderful job on this card! The scallops and piercing is a nice touch also - very classy!

I wouldn't have known that your circles weren't perfect-- the card certainly is!!! It's very imaginative and so nicely laid out! I'd like to model a card after this one-- thanks for the inspiration!
