Gift Card Holders

Hi everyone.  Sorry I haven't posted for a while.  It is all due to being extremely busy, plus trying to finish our renovation.  Time seems to just zip by.  Cannot believe we are almost at the end of the financial year ALREADY!!!!!  I came to this realisation the other day when trying to finalise my workshop projects for "Christmas in July". Yes this is also just around the corner.  I will post the details of this workshop when it gets a little closer for those who are interested.


Now onto today's post. .....


It seems to become harder with each passing year to come up with great gift ideas so decided to have a workshop for a gift card holder.  I have made one for a male recipient and one for a female.  I have used the new Tim Holtz dies for these (which I just luuurrrve to bits).  The dimensions are a piece of card measuring 4 in x 12 in then scored at 4 in, 6 in and 8 in.  You then fold into a W with the short flap in the inside of the card.  On the fold of the little flap on the inside, using your craft knife you place a slit long enough to fit your gift card into.  Then you can stick the little flap together on the other side making sure to use thin tape so that your gift card slips into the slot nicely.  You can decorate according to the occasion.
