Who said money doesn’t grow on trees?!
Happy Wednesday! I have a few cards ideas for you today, along with a video!
If you are like me, you have a few people in your life that are hard to shop for or who could use cash more than any other gift. So, why not a card that holds cash? Here are a few ideas and a video for you showing how to turn money into a snowman scarf or a holiday tree. Such fun!
Cards by Jennifer McGuire
Supplies:
- Create Your Own (snowman)
- Flourish Background
- Lots of Merry
- Pocketful ‘O Holiday Trees Small
- Sparkling Snowflake
- Holiday Sayings
- White, Black and Soft Pool Inks
- White Staz-On Ink
- Black Pearls, Blue and Red Metallic Decor, Clear Gemstones, Snowflake Gems
- Clear Acetate Notecard
- Frosted Lace Stickles (rubbed onto light blue piece to act as shiny snow)
- Other: Bo Bunny patterned paper, string, 3″ circle punch
Aren’t money cards fun? I bet they would make the recipients smile.
And if you are looking for a birthday card that holds money, here is an idea I shared here a few months ago…

Hope these cards give you ideas for future gifts. And remember, you have two weeks - until December 27th - to enter the “cards that give” challenge.
Tomorrow we will be here announcing the winners from last week’s challenge. And Friday is our big day - our first HUGE Blog Hop! We have lots of fun things and prizes planned, so be sure to join us. It will be amazing and fun… a nice treat before the busy holidays.
Also… be sure to check out HERE to find a Catalog Preview Party near you. I am looking forward to doing a make and take at my local store, Stamp Your Art Out, on Saturday. If you have never been to one of these parties, they are a TON of fun and so inspiring.
See ya soon,

Do you still sell the products used to make these cards? I found a link to this page on Pinterest and I would love to make these cards for 4 different people this Christmas and I do not have the supplies. I would happily buy a kit if you can help me out. Thanks!

Hi April! Many of the products Jennifer used on these cards are still available in our online store, though there is no kit for each card. You can find the links to the products in the Hero Arts Online Store in the post above. Hope that helps, and happy stamping!
