Gift Card Holders -- Dress Up Your Gift Giving

When my children were little I loved finding that special gift they really wanted for Christmas but now that they are all grown up I find it difficult to get them presents because they just buy whatever they want as soon as they have the money. 

So now I give them gift cards which they can use on what they really want . . . and who doesn't need extra money. But a gift card (or cash) alone doesn't seem special enough so I package it inside a handmade greeting card!

You can make a left or right opening card with this fun fold technique.
You can hide a gift card or cash behind the removable tag on the front of this card.
The tag can be used for gift giving as well or just leave it in the card as extra decoration.
This fun fold video shows how to make the tag/gift card holder cards.
These two cute cards used the Sweet Little Stockings bundle of products.
The inside of these cards reveal a pocket for you to hide a gift card or cash.
If you'd like to recreate these cute cards have a look at my instructional video here.
You can even change any existing greeting card into a gift card holder using a bit of extra paper and a punch as shown in my Quick Tip video.
I hope I've inspired you to dress up your prezzy card giving this year and I'd love to see what you make!
