Gift Card Envelope with Tutorial


The designers at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration are sharing their favorite gift card holders today. I found the idea for this little gem on Pinterest. Would you like to make one? (Or lots for that matter, they are really quick and simple.)

To start you'll need two 4" x 12" pieces of double sided Designer Series Paper (I used All Is Calm from the Holiday Catalog), the Circles Framelits and your Big Shot.



Next, cut out four circles and fold them all in half.



The next step is the hardest part. Glue them all together so they overlap, but you can still fold the flaps over.


Put your gift card inside and then fold the flaps in like your closing up a box without tape.


I trimmed mine with the Silver 1/8" Ribbon. You could also easily add a label to the outside and write a little note inside.

Simple Gift Card Holder

It feels great to be back in a regular blogging schedule. This is the first week since I took over my new position at work that I've blogged the entire week! Speaking of my new job, my student employees have had to deal with me expecting more out of them and changing the way they do some things. They have stepped up to the challenge, and I wanted to show my appreciation to them.


Let's face it, they are college students and probably won't care about this part. However, I'm guessing they'll love what's inside!


If you would like to see the full tutorial you can check out my Design Team post at Stylin' Stampin' INKSpiration. But before you go...

I've got BLOG CANDY! All you have to do is leave a comment with your guess of where the gift card is from. One lucky reader will win a Stampin' Up! embossing folder. You have until 9am Saturday, March 22nd to guess. Please also leave your email address in the comment, so I can reach you if you are the lucky winner!

Have a great weekend and ENJOY!
