How are you doing with your Christmas shopping? Are you finished or not? Or are you one of those extremely organized people who got it done last year?
Are gift cards on your shopping list? They are the easy gift to give when the person your giving to seems to have just about everything! So if gift cards are on your shopping list – here is another style of gift card holder that you can try.
This is what it looks like open….
….and here’s another view with a gift card tucked into it.
I cut one piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock 6-3/4″ x 4-1/4″ and a second piece 4-1/8″ x 4-1/4″. Score the longer piece at 2-1/2″ and 5-1/2″ on the long side and the shorter piece at 1-1/4″ on the long side as well. The corners were rounded using the Envelope Punch Board. Decorate as desired, I used the Merry Everything stamp set for mine. Create a band by using either ribbon or card stock. I cut a strip of Cherry Cobbler card stock 3/4″ wide by 10″ long and wrapped it around the closed holder before I adhered the ends. Give it a try, you will want to trim the ends before finishing.
TIP: Use Sticky Strip to seal the pocket on 3 sides. To make sure there is enough room for the gift card, trim the Sticky Strip in half lengthwise.
