Using Stampin' Up!'s Chalk Talk to Make a Gift Card

I love cards that hold gifts – and I think that Stampin' Up!'s Chalk Talk is perfect for this!  I was playing around with Polka Dots today as it was mostly overcast and I wanted brightness – so of course polka dots are my go-to mood changer!

***AND remember, all the regular patterned paper is Buy 3, Get 1 Free for just a few more days!  So if you need to stock up on Polka Dot Parade, now is the time.***

Side note…  Why I love Polka Dot Parade:  It comes with six colors of Polka Dots.  Orange and Purple – perfect for Halloween.  Red and Green – perfect for Christmas.  Blue and Yellow – perfect for everything else!  You can also use the orange and green for Turkey day.

Grab yours at a great savings here!

Back to the card, I wanted bright and fun colors and I got just that!  All I have to do is tuck in a gift card and BAM – instant gift for someone!   Or, if hubby wants to come and get this card and put a gift card in it for me – EVEN BETTER!
