This month’s theme is Holiday Gift Packaging, and I’m really excited about the HUGE tutorial that you can get as an instant download in my Made to Create store! I know you’re going to love it.
Today I made an adorable little Gift Card Holder for you to enjoy, using the amazing Mini Pocket Envelope Dies! I love this die set, because I can whip out a huge pile of treat/gift card holders soooo quickly. PLEASE CLICK HERE to watch the video where I made these holders…you can see just how quick and easy they are to make!
This gift card holder uses the A Little Festive paper pack by Stampin’ Up!, which is full of beautiful printed papers AND several pages of beautifully colored die cut images. All you have to do is pop them out, and then use them to decorate your cards or other projects for instant cuteness.
After die cutting out the envelopes, I used the Everyday Essentials dies to cut out this Garden Green circle. Then, I mounted everything directly onto the little envelope die and it was basically ready to go! The little “Merry” sentiment is from the Humble Home stamp set, and I also used my Wink of Stella Glitter Pen to add some glitz and glam to the little gingerbread house. If you watch the video, you can see exactly how to put the gift card holder together.
For this next design, I used all of the same products, but I just changed up the die cut image! The circle was punched out of the Festive Glimmer paper using the 2-3/8″ circle punch, and then quickly layered up and finished. Aren’t they both festive and fun?
