Display Accordion Gift Card Holder

Today I am sharing a Display Accordion Gift Card Holder using products from the beautiful Sunflower Fields Suite. This Display Accordion Gift Card Holder gives you the best of both worlds—a fun fold card AND a gift card holder all in one!

You all know how much I love a good fun fold, and if I can add a gift card holder to it, even better! I really love the accordion design on this one because when you open it up, it stands beautifully for display while still giving you a special place to tuck in a gift card.

For my project, I am using products from the Sunflower Fields Suite, which has quickly become one of my favorites. The beautiful sunflowers work perfectly with this fold and really make the different sections of the card stand out.

1 Easy Christmas Card Template 2 Ways

This Week’s  Template Thursday is all about 1 Easy Christmas Card Template 2 Ways using the adorable Christmas Crew Bundle from Stampin’ Up! I love how 1 Easy Christmas Card Template 2 Ways can give you two completely different looks while still starting with the exact same layout.

For today’s cards, I had so much fun playing with the Christmas Crew Bundle. These little Christmas characters are just too cute, and they each bring a completely different personality to the same card template.

Pocket Gate Fold Gift Card Holder

Today we are creating a Pocket Gate Fold Gift Card Holder, and you know I love a fun fold that has a little something extra! This Pocket Gate Fold Gift Card Holder was a fun and unique way to close your standard Gate Fold Card without using a belly band.

For today’s project, I am using the Painted Pumpkins Bundle, which has quickly become such a fun one to create with for fall. I love the look of these pumpkins, and I thought they were perfect for this style of card.
