Pocket Gift Card Holder

Today’s project is perfect for this time of year. I created the perfect gift card holder for any event. Whether you are making a card for a Birthday, Wedding, Graduation, or Just Because this is the perfect quick and easy Layout.

All you truly need is a piece of 12×12 Designer Paper of your choice, coordinating colored cardstock, and the perfect bundle. In today’s projects I am using the Hues of Happiness Designer Paper. Happiness Abounds Bundle, and Stylish Shapes Dies.

We are starting off by cutting our 12×12 DSP

6″ x 12″
6″ x 9 1/4″
2″ x 6″

In your next step, you will want to score your DSP along the 9 1/4″ side at 2 3/4″ and 7″ Rotate along the 6″ side you will score at 5/8″. Then by taking your paper snips you will want to remove the two bottom corners. To get the perfect fold you will also want to trim the middle flap at an angle.

Using a strong adhesive such as Stamp n Seal or Stamp n Seal + adhere flap pieces together.

Next, you will want to use the 3rd smallest circle die or any circle die or punch to notch out the top of your card as well as the 2″x6″ Strip that will hold your gift card for your pocket piece.

For your insert pocket pieces, you will want to pick a good coordinating color as well as Basic White for your sentiment piece. In this project, I used Melon Mambo

Melon Mambo Piece 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
Basic White : 3 3/4″ x 5″

On your Basic White Piece, you will want to add adhesive to the bottom edge, place your 2″ x 6″ DSP.

Flip your panel over and trim corner pieces off to give you a better fold.

Stamp your Sentiment and Adhere your Panel to Melon Mambo Cardstock. I used the stitched squares from Stylish Shapes and I die cut the flowers out of the DSP. I finished up with my new favorite Solid Faced Gems.
