Tutorial : A Gift Card Holder with Jack and Jill

Hello girls!

There are numerous occasions when we struggle to find a right gift for someone, right? How about gifting a gift card from that person's favourite store! I love gift cards because they give me the freedom to spend as I wish 😉 And this option becomes even more meaningful when you are looking a gift for babies. When babies are born, they are showered with so many gifts from everyone, and the new parents end up having multiples of everything 😃😃

So for today's post I have designed a gift card holder which will give a personal touch to your gift card. And here it is:

Isn't it cute?

The Jack and Jill Pattern Papers are so apt for this theme. They are gender neutral as well which makes it a win win situation :)

Tutorial

Step 1

You need to take a 4.25" x 8" blue card stock and score it at 2" and 5"

Step 2

You will need 2 pieces of 4"x1.75" pattern papers of your choice

and 

You need 3 pieces of 4"x 2.75" pattern papers of your choice

Step 3

Fold on score line and round the corners of the 2" flap. as shown in the picture.

Step 4

Now start pasting the pattern papers. How ever you can stick them however you want but I prefer to have a light pattern to write wishes in this holder as shown in the following picture.

Once all your sides are ready, we can proceed to make our belly band.

Step 5

Cut a 1"X 7" stripe from a contrast colour card stock. And incase you are using a 6" paper pack you can join two stripes and make a longer one as I did. Please ignore my dirty crafting mat 😬

Score this strip at 3" and 6" and join both end with help of adhesive.

Our belly band is ready now and we move towards embellishing it.

Take two circle dies 0.25" diameter difference and cut a circle from blue card stock (same as base) with bigger die.

The Jack and Jill paper pack comes with a very beautiful elements sheet. So I took my smaller die and cut that cute start from that sheet. stick smaller circle to bigger circle and adhere to belly band.

And thats it! Our cute little gift card holder is ready!

And this is how a gift card inside this holder looks like. You can use any double sided tape to stick it.

Do let me know if you like this. I had so much fun while making it!

Supplies Used:
