Vintage Gift Card Holder

This week on the Tombow blog we were giving the task of creating something with the theme of "Gifts that keep on Giving"  It took me a bit to think about what I wanted to create, but then it hit me.  I give gift cards to several people in my family and those are definitely gifts that keep on giving so I decided to create a little gift card holder with a vintage feel to it.  

 I used papers from the Melissa Frances Deck the Halls 6 x 6 paper pad and some ivory cardstock to create this quick and easy gift card holder.  I started with a 4" x 6 1/2" piece of ivory cardstock.  With the long side at the top score at 2 3/4" and 5"  Fold on score lines.  Add Tombow MonoAdhesive Dots to the left and right sides on the 1 1/2" flap and fold up to create the pocket for your gift card.  I used more MonoAdhesive Dots to attach the print papers to the outside/inside flaps of the holder.  I stamped the sentiment from Northwoods onto a small oval with Cranberry Adirondack ink and then punched out some branches from a MS punch and the leaves from the Spellbinders Foliage die set.  I used a Tombow Foam Tab on the back of the oval to hold the branches in place and to create height for my sentiment.  

This would be a quick and easy project that could be decorated for any holiday or celebration.  The possibilities are endless!
