STAMPIN’ PRETTY STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL:
Create a 3 x 3 card base using Stampin’ Up! Thick Whisper White card stock and the Stampin’ Trimmer.
Using a Stamparatus stamp positioning tool (watch my video tips here), stamp gift and ribbon images (Nothing Sweeter Photopolymer Stamp Set) in Versamark Ink on Petal Pink card stock. Heat emboss with a Heat Tool and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
Crop the gift using the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine, Magnetic Platform and gift die from Sweetly Stitched Framelits Dies.
Using the Stamparatus stamp positioning tool, stamp sentiment (Nothing Sweeter Photopolymer Stamp Set) on Thick Whisper White card stock. Heat emboss with a Heat Tool and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
Crop the sentiment using the small tag die from Santa’s Signpost Framelits Dies, the Big Shot and Magnetic Platform (to help keep the sentiment in place).
Thread hole created by the tag die with Whisper White Solid Baker’s Twine and tie in a bow. Add two self-adhesive gold pearls (Metallic Pearls) as shown and adhere with two Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the gift.
Crop a 2 1/8 square using Thick Whisper White card stock, the Big Shot and Layering Squares Framelits Dies. Crop a 2 1/2 scalloped square using Flirty Flamingo card stock, the Big Shot and Layering Squares Framelits dies.
Adhere the gift to the Whisper White Square with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the Whisper White Square with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the Flirty Flamingo scalloped square. Adhere the Flirty Flamingo scalloped square with Snail Adhesive to card base.
Adhere a polka dot pattern from Brights 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper to the outside flap of a 3 x 3 Whisper White envelope using an adhesive of your choice. I used Snail Adhesive. Trim excess of the designer series paper with Paper Snips, using curves of the envelope flap as a guide.

Hugs Frenchie
Thanks, Frenchie. I love having a stash of 3 x 3 cards for a quick gift!
Such a precious gift card! I bought this bundle and fell in love with it first sight. Can’t wait to play with it. Thanks Mary for the darling example!
Thanks so much . . . I was so happy to use the packaging as an inspiration for my card!
What a sweet card! And the embossing on that tiny tag is so luxurious. I overlooked the tag in the Santa’s Signposts set–I’ll have to remember that for the future. Thanks for the inspiration.
Any little tag will do . . . but the tag in Santa’s Signposts worked well!
I really like this stamp set. It screams all year round. THANK YOU
definitely . . . i can’t wait to make “cookies” with it!
What a GORGEOUS little gift card my friend. The color selection is so flirty…….and the gold embossed gift box is simply beautiful. Together…..You have mixed up the perfect little card. Thanks for sharing!
I love those peachy pinks, Kadie!
Such a sweet card and inspired by a sweet gift. Love the colors and simple design.
thanks for the suggestion to do a 3 x 3 today, BK!
Oh my goodness Mary!!! what a gorgeous little gift card!! The gold embossing looks spectacular on this tiny image, so rich and so elegant.
And I must say, that is the most beautiful gift wrapping for a wine glass I’ve ever seen, if this is the wrapping, I can only imagine the beauty of the wine glass inside, I can tell you right now, it would be very hard for me to throw away this lovely package.
Thank you so much for sharing, Mary.

the wine glass was hand painted in pink and orange . . . stunning!
