Hello friends and Happy Monday!
Today's card features the super cool Mailbox Card Base from the Vintage Love Release from Honey Bee Stamps which I magically turned into a mailbox for a Gift card, so keep reading to see how I did that.
CARD RECIPE
Mailbox - A2 Vintage Mailbox Card Base Dies
Gift Card Post Card- Mini Postcard Die
Frame - Lovely Layouts Posted Dies
Inside sentiment - Mailbox Memos Stamp Set
Background Stamps - Postmarked Stamp Set
Gems - Vintage Love Gem Stickers
To create the space for the Gift Card, I added a thin piece of foam tape along the edge of the top layer of the mailbox and then glued it to the bottom layer.
To hold the gift card I simply used a tape runner and applied low tack tape to the back of the gift card I then attached it to the Mini Postcard Die that I had stamped using images from the Postmarked Stamp Set.
To keep the mailbox door closed I cut a thin strip of magnetic material and attached it to the door and the inside of the mailbox.
On the inside, I stamped a sentiment from the Mailbox Memos Stamp Set.
Once the recipient removes the gift card they will also see another little message that I stamped from the Mailbox Memos Stamp Set.
Hope this Vintage Mailbox Gift Card inspired you to use your supplies creatively! Hidden surprises are always fun for the recipient, making this card extra thoughtful!
Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
