Stampin' Up Season Like Christmas Christmas Fun Fold Gift Card Holder

Here it is folks, front and center... the last of my firefighters' Christmas gift card holders...


My card base is Basic Gray Cardstock. The patterned paper is from the Reminisce Firefighters Scrapbook Kit. The die cut firetruck is a die from the B538 Fire Department Cheery Lynn Designs. 

I stamped the sentiment from the retired Season Like Stamp Set with Real Red ink on a scrap of Basic White Cardstock. I cut it out with a die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. The ribbon is the retired Striped Metallic Ribbon.

Before I show you the inside, I want to thank Lynn Dunn for the instructions on how to create the design of the gift card holder.


The sentiment is from the Joy Clair Heroes Stamp Set.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my array of gift card holders for the EMS in my community. My customer doesn't know it, but if he visits my blog and comments on any of the cards I have made, he will get them for free. I provided the link for him yesterday.

No matter what he does or doesn't do, the cards will be a donation in appreciation for what the men and women do for our community. They participate in our Memorial Day parade and our golf cart parade as well as running calls. I am a lifetime Auxiliary member in Castleton-on-Hudson, NY. My husband was a lifetime member and was Chief for 10 years. (That's why I have gray hair...lol!) Our son was a member of the company as well. My husband was also on the volunteer ambulance squad. I tried to be the first woman to get into the ambulance squad but the men wouldn't allow it. Wow, have times changed! I also have great friends who are EMT's and paramedics. Can you see I am gung ho EMS?
