Gift Card Holder

Hello!

Some people think gift cards are great, others think it is a lazy way to give a gift.  Personally, I LOVE to give and receive all gift cards!  But for those that think I didn't put much thought into it, I like to make a pretty holder to put it in.  That way, at least the card was thoughtful, right?!

Here is a gift card holder we made at my August events.  It is a little smaller than a regular card size (3 3/4 x 5 1/4).  I like this smaller size better for this.  It's easy to make, too.  You simple make a card and cut out a fun shape to use as the flap.  I used Stampin' Up!s Label framelits.  I also dressed it up with lots of embossing.  I think the ruffled flower also adds a little extra texture to it.  Ruffled flower instructions coming soom.

Here is the recipe:
Stamps: Delightful Dozen

Ink: Pool Party, Early Expresso, Lucky Limeade

Paper: Twitterpated DSP, Pool Party, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler

Accessories: Framelits-Labels, 2011-2012 In Color Brad, 1 ¼ scallop circle punch, chevron embossing folder, perfect polka dots embossing folder

Have a great day!
