Gift cards are very popular gifts for any time of year, but we give even more during the holidays. Here is an easy gift card holder that anyone would appreciate receiving.

I started with a 6″ x 6″ piece of Merry Moments Designer Series Paper. I scored it at 1″ and at 3-1/2″. I folded it along the score lines, and adhered the sides to make an envelope.

I cut a another piece of the same paper 1″ x 6″ and adhered it to the underside of  the flap, with about 1/2″ showing. Using a 1-1/4″ Circle Punch, I cut a finger notch in the inner flap.

For the belly band, I cut a 1-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ strip of Cherry Cobbler card stock, wrapped it around the envelope, and glued the ends together. I made sure it wasn’t so tight that it’s difficult to slide on and off.

I stamped the sentiment from the Oh, What Fun stamp set on Whisper White card stock in Cherry Cobbler, then cut it out with the 2″ Circle Punch, with the wording toward the top of the circle.

I’ve used this stamp set a lot this holiday season. It coordinates with the Oh, What Fun Tag Project Kit, but is great by itself.

I cut a piece of Gold foil Sheet with he 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch, and a piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock with the 2-1/2″ Circle Punch. I glued the gold piece to the Cherry Cobbler piece, then adhered the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I glued the snowflake on then adhered the twine bow with a Glue Dot. I glued this whole piece to the belly band, covering the seam where the two ends overlap.

Here it is from the back.

Here’s what I used:

Thanks for stopping by today, and Sweet Stamping!
