My Favorite Things Stamps...Merry & Bright

Hey Stampin' friends! I'm still making a few last minute cards. My mom wants a gift card to the Apple store to go towards the MacBook Pro laptop that she wants. Unfortunately, we've had a few unforeseen events that prevented us from making the trip to the Apple Store, in Toronto, to pick up that gift card.  I still wanted to make something special so that she knows I had good intentions and I'll include the money in lieu of the gift card.   

I was inspired to make this card by an e-mail Apple gift card that I saw on the Apple website. I made the card with the Blueprints 4 from Electric Red Heavyweight Card Stock and I cut the Red Delicious Die-namics from Sweet Tooth Heavyweight Card Stock and used a circle die from the Circle STAX to make the Apple icon. I used the Plaid Background Builder Stamp Set and stamped it with Sweet Tooth Pigment Dye Ink and heat embossed it with AC Zing White  Embossing powder. I stamped a sentiment from the Cheerful Christmas Greetings Stamp set in Electric Red Premium Dye Ink on Sweet Tooth Heavyweight Card Stock cut with the Layered Treat Tag Die-namics. Lastly, I added a few YNS Gumdrops in White Sugar and Holly Berry Red.

on the inside... I added a Gift Card Pocket with the Gift Card Pocket - Horizontal Die-namics cut from the Electric Red Heavyweight Card Stock and stamped a sentiment from LJD Gift Card Greetings II Stamp Set in MFT Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink. 

Thanks SO much for stopping by and having a wee peek at yet another MFT Christmas Card!
