Quick and Easy Place Cards For Your Holiday Table Setting

Posted on October 18, 2022 by Imagine

By Katy Ingram –

Hello Friends! Katy here and today I am creating place cards for my Thanksgiving table. Now I know some people may not do this, but I have added a bit of a twist to mine. On the inside I have included some encouraging and uplifting sentiments to let my loved ones know I appreciate and love them and that I am thankful and grateful to have them at my table for the holidays. Just a little something to make them smile this holiday season.

In today’s video tutorial you will see how easily these cards came together using some Memento Inks and I also share where my inspiration came from. I also mention these would be great tombstones for Halloween!

I cut a piece of heavyweight white card stock 2 3/4 inches wide by 8 inches long and scored at 4 inches and then used the number 8 arch die within the Spellbinders Essential Arches layering dies.

To create the card simply fold the card at the score line and place the arch of the die a bit above that folded line so the die is off the top of the card stock and then run it through your die cutting machine.

The video below has all the details. I hope you enjoy and are inspired to add some inspirational place cards at your table this holiday season.

Let’s Make Some Autumn Inspired Gift Card Tags

Posted on October 14, 2022 by Imagine

By Kathy Pisupati –

Hi my crafty friends! Today I have a new tutorial for you that may help you to use your fall dies in a new way. I will be using the VersaColor Inks to make a mess, yes…a mess that turns out to be BEAUTIFUL! We will be creating gift card tags for any occasion using fall leaf dies.

Skill Level: Intermediate
Time to Complete: 1 hour

Directions:

Step 1:

Make a mess. Yes, take a piece of 80lb card stock and swipe those VersaColor inks. Smoosh ‘em, splatter ‘em, do whatever you want with them. Use those reinkers that you have sitting on your shelf.

Step 2:

Let these panels dry. Because the VersaColor inks are a pigment ink they take a while to dry, let them dry! Go have a cup of coffee and take a peek at more inspiration on the Imagine Blog.

Step 3:

Use your leaf dies to cut several leaves from your messy panel. Trust me! Are they pretty?

Step 4:

Use a gift card tag die to cut some tags.
You should be able to get three holders from one sheet of 8.5” x 11”.

Step 6:

Step 7:

Lay out your pretty leaves and glue them down with Imagine On Point Glue. Trim off any excess.

Step 8

Stamp some sentiments, cut, and create a shadow strip from gold card stock. Adhere with On Point Glue. Put some foam tape on the back and adhere to your tags. Add some bling with the On Point Glue.

Step 9:

Loop some twine through the holes and the gift holders are done. I hope this has helped you seen those fall products in a new light. Thank you for stopping by the Imagine Blog!
