Gift Cards are popular for gift giving, especially during the holidays. The Trendy Gals and Theresa have each created some beautiful GC holders using Trendy Twine, Packaging, and Christmas stamps. Make sure to stop by the
Trendy Twine blog to see them all! This is a great way to add a little handmade touch to the gift. You can find all of these goodies at
Annie’s Paper Boutique. Here is the one I created:
I wanted to stick with a rustic Christmas theme, so I started with a
Kraft Paper Pocket and created word art on it by stamping sentiments from the
APB Merry & Bright stamp set in brown all over it. I stamped the Happy Christmas sentiment in red on natural cardstock and glued a border and bow of
Cherry Latte Trendy Twine on it. That rectangle was popped up with foam tape for extra visual interest. For a little extra sparkle, I added some sequins from the
Christmas Shaker Medley.
To create the tag, I trimmed a
Natural Tag-It then rounded the bottom corners. I stamped a star from the
APB Merry Christmas stamp set in red and the words from the
APB Merry & Bright stamp set in brown. I added a couple of sequins from the
Christmas Shaker Medley, and a
Cherry Latte Trendy Page Dot. Once I added the gift card inside (it was a perfect fit!) I punched a hole in the top of the
Kraft Paper Pocket to add the tag with a tassel of
Cherry Latte Trendy Twine.
