Hello my crafty peeps!
If you are like me, you say you will make all your cards and do your christmas shopping early and not wait till the last second... BUT time seems to slip by and BAM its almost Christmas!
I tend to give at least one person on my Christmas list a gift card. That's why today's project is a gift card holder.
Instructions:
- Make 3 from an A4 sheet of cardstock. The belly band slides off and it opens up for a gift card holder.
- Cut a piece of A4 cardstock in 3
vertically so you end up with 3 pieces 2.75” wide x 11” long.
- Using the largest Framelit from the Lots
of Labels Framelit set; cut the rounded edge as shown in the photo below. (Borrowed photo from Claire Daly)
- Starting from the straight end, score
at 8cm and 12cm.
- Using a 2" Circle punch, cut a
semi-circle in the straight end.
- Emboss the 8cm long piece with the
semi-circle (I used the Lucky Stars Embossing Folder)
- Cut a piece of Stampin' Up! Tear and
Tape in half vertically (so you have two thinner strips). Use these to
adhere the embossed pieces down to create the pouch. If you keep the tape
the same width it's a bit of a tight fit for the card, but this fits and
holds just fine.
- Cut a piece of DSP using the second Largest
Lots of Labels Framelit and use that to decorate the front of the flap.
- Then just create your belly band and
decoration. I used a 2 3/8" Scallop Punch, Merry
Moments DSP. Also used the Penguin from Snow Place (embossed in black).
Hope you like and feel inspired to try your own version. Love to see any of your versions...
Hugs, Karen
