Question Answered

There have been questions regarding the gift card holder like "How did you do this?" Well, it's very simple...

You will need:
12x12 piece of stock card
glue dots
scallop edge punch


First, trim your paper at 4" so you end up with a piece of 4"x12" cardstock
Second, score at 4", 6", and 8"
Third, fold at the 6" score and then, fold back at the 4" and 8" scores

You should now have what looks like a card from the outside, but with a middle

Place gule dots at the very edge of the back so that the middle section sticks together (you want to do this at the very edge, because if you put glue dots too far down, your gift card will not stick in the holder)

Now, take your scallop edge punch and punch out the middle section leaving a little of both ends untouched (so your gift card won't fall out the sides)

You're done with the assembly...now you just need to decorate :)

These are going to make great Christmas gift card holders...you can even use your Country Living Holiday Collection kit supplies to make your holders beautiful!


Here's some pictures of a birthday gift card holder we made last month in my monthly class...
Ok...I cannot get this picture to post the right way (grrrrrr....)!!!
