Here is a quick and easy gift card holder design. I’ve made these for Christmas giving, but a birthday or other occasion sentiment could just as easily be stamped and different patterned papers used.
Speaking of stamping, one of my most favorite stamping tools is my Stamparatus. The sentiment on all of these cards had to be positioned only one time. I could then stamp all the cards so fast and so easily with perfectly aligned/straight sentiments. I’m not a Stampin’ Up demonstrator any more, but I still recommend this tool. Love it!
A metal tab holds the card closed. To open the card, just turn the tab.
Here’s a template if you want to give it try.
Oh and if you do decide to make this card holder design, be sure to attached the brad and tab before taping the sides of the card holder pocket. (Believe me as I speak from experience, it’s much harder to put on the brad after the sides have been taped!)
Happy Crafting!
