Hi crafters and welcome back! This is the only post with one die up for offer, but it is a really useful die! Showcased in this post is the new Stocking Gift Card Holder die set. Now there have been a few logistical issues with this one as I just could not find a Christmas themed gift card in the middle of April when my Festive card samples were done! So I did improvise to show that you can make your own tag to use instead of a gift card! The die has a slot designed into the die where a gift card or tag can be inserted. What a wonderful way to give a gift card, so much nicer than just in an envelope, don't you think! The die has been designed in several pieces, an inside decorative die, an outer cutting edge and another slightly larger cutting edge so you have a built in frame for it if you like! Leave a comment for this one if you would like a chance to win it. Day three will be coming your way at 6am tomorrow morning and there is so much more to see! All for now, Sue x

Another cutie. Really lovely card and idea.
Doreen R
What a great idea Sue, so much nicer than the usual ones. JJxx
Lovely stocking x xhazel young nottm
What a fantastic idea - trust you Sueye to think of it. As the grand children get older all they want is money or gift tokens. As you say a very much nicer way of giving and receiving tokens or money. How about a mini envelope to fit the stocking for money. A great idea Sue thank you.
Hi Sue. What a fab card !!! and what a fantastic idea !!! I think this will be another "must have" die for me. It is the perfect way to give a gift card, voucher or money to those people who are difficult to buy for at Christmas time. I definately have some of those people in my family so this will be sooo useful for me !!! I think the stocking design is wonderful Sue. I really love it. I could see me doing the inlay technique with this die !!! Thank you. I can't wait until tomorrow now to see what is next. Sending you lots of love and hugs Sue from Tres x x x
Sending love to everyone from Tres x x x

GE Sue. Fab idea and die. Making Christmas cards in April!!!!! I can't bring myself make them until autumn but I do like to plan what I'll do an get the stuff ready to go so when the festive urge hits it's all there ready and waiting.

I love this die. My grandchildren will love this one. It's difficult to know what to buy them now so this will be so useful to give a gift card. My Christmas shopping will be so much easier this year so I can use this card in different colours for all of them!
Love it!

This is fabulous
Lovely card, Sue, and a great idea! Nanny Jo N Ireland
Hi Sue, what a great concept. With grown Children and grandchildren, it is hard for us to find imaginative way to give gift cards, so this is currently #1 on my wishlist. Good luck for the draw everyone. Bx
Hi Sue,
This could be a great die for a quick card.
Or if time allowed it could be used for a more detailed card.
A great addition to our die collection.
Looking forward to what you have for us tomorrow.
Have a lovely evening, Brenda xxx
Great idea Sue - such a cute design x Susan (Inverness)

Hi Sue,
Such a cute design and novel idea - I love it!
Laura Kempster, Portsmouth x
Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
If you take this card and die at face value they are fantastic, add to that the ingenious concept of a gift card pocket and it's usefulness reaches stratospheric proportions, what an unbelievably clever idea!
I don't tend to send gift vouchers because I prefer to give a personalised gift that I have taken the time and effort to choose, however, that doesn't mean I wouldn't buy this die because I just love the design and a decorative tag would look just as effective in my opinion.
I bet you experienced a few funny looks when enquiring about festive gift cards in April, they must have thought you supremely prepared and overly conscientious:-)..... Someone asking for Christmas themed items even before they are displayed in the shops is a rare event indeed considering they start to appear before the school summer holidays are over!
Nevermind, I prefer your handmade card anyway, and the rest of the card is simply gorgeous too.....particularly like the colour palette.
I am so enjoying this Blogathon, I have a soft spot for Christmas themed dies and even though I have an embarrassing amount in my collection I will most definitely be adding to them with from your new collection.....I wonder if you find it hard to get your festive mojo in gear so early in the year, or does it come second nature to you now........
I'm excited to see what delights tomorrow will bring, though I can't promise that I'll be ready at 6am Sue but please don't question my dedication to the blog because it remains steadfast regardless of my need for excessive amounts of beauty sleep:-)....some of us need more help than others!
Have a lovely evening blog buddies....despite back to back football coverage:-( , sending huge hugs to you allxxxxxx

My two Grand children will love this one, and so will I. What to get an eleven and a ten boy???? Then you have the shipping cost...in Canada it's very expensive, what I save in shipping will buy the die, OR another one if I win this one-LOL.
Another all time favourite with children's cards, love this one too, cannot decide my favourite....all just so amazing.....superb card.....luv Ursula xxxx

Brilliant! This is so cute and so much better than pockets stuck onto insides of cards. Gift Cards are such a popular option for gifts now, can I cheekily ask if there could be a birthday one in a future release?

Hi Sue this is great. Have been waiting for something like this and the design is fabulous suitable for age.The Ned list just keeps getting longer.

Hello Sue,
Crikey this makes me think about a modern version of hanging up your stocking, this one gets a gift card with money on it as opposed to a two shilling bit in the bottom of your stocking along with the apple and orange, hee hee hee. Thank you Sue for bringing some of the fun back into our extremely busy time of the year,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (glenochil )
Hi Sue
What a great day it has been and this final die is such a good idea. People are increasingly giving gift cards these days so this clever little number will appeal to many.
Regards
Heather R Oxfordshire
Aah! Now I get it A gift card holder Makes sense and it's beautiful So handy for when we aren't able to buy a gift & need to buy gift cards karenlotty
Great idea, need to get this die, I would make good use of it. Anne x
Hi Sue
Absolute blimmin' genius idea! I send so many gift tokens or cash at Christmas and over the last 10 years I've exhausted most types of envelope or novelty card and I need some help in a big way. This could well be it, convenience is a big factor for me more and more and considering the gift card recipients go from their teens to their 60s this would be ideal for all.
Also, for those who sell cards, a gift card holder would be great extra on a card stall. What to do with those pesky bits of plastic is a universal problem!
Must off, gotta write shopping list for Mr W for the morning. See if I can stay awake to the end of it.
Sweet dreams everyone, see you soon, T x
Hi Sue:
Wow. When I saw your new collection up for pre-order at JoannaSheen I didn't know that this die was a gift card holder. What a great idea.

To My Very Special Dear Friend Sue,
I So Love This Spectacular Die That Can Be Used In So Many Delightful Ways.
I Love The Truly Tremendous Idea Of Having A Tag On Your

More Personalised.

We've Given Money Too, As They Are Both At An Age They Can Purchase What They Wish.

Goodness me...I've only just spotted this post (Sunday am). I'm not sure how I missed it yesterday. What a fun card. I love the way you've made your tag to fit inside instead of a gift card, great thinking outside the box there, Sue.
Another great design and I can't think of anyone who wouldn't love receiving a Christmas card made with this die :)
