Step by step: how to make a gift card

Hi everyone!

Today we are going to make a card where you can insert a gift inside.

To start, cut a piece of cardstock: 8 1/2″ by 8″.

Fold at 4 1/4″.

Cut the bottom of the card’s front so you’ll end up with an 4 1/4″ by 5 1/2″ card. You should cut 2 1/2″ if you followed the dimensions given.

Then fold the bottm of the card’s back.

Punch a circle right in the middle of the flap.

Then sew the flap to the back of the card in order to have a pocket.

With the “Birthday Balloons” set, stamp 2 balloons with different inks.

Then cut around the balloons.

Prepare the front of the card.

Add pop dots to the balloons to give dimension.

Stamp a greeting inside the card and insert your gift.

Here’s the finished card:

Enjoy your gift giving,

Virginie
