12 Weeks of Gift Card Ideas ’til Christmas

Week 11.

Aaahhhh, inspiration. I am making gift card/money holders for 12 weeks, now 11 weeks until Christmas. And, it’s basically re-inventing improving the wheel.

So, how do I do that???? Well, this week the inspiration came from a Wednesday challenge. 

Take a look at my card first –

Stunning, right?

Let’s see it unfolded. And, just look at the beauty inside.

Who would have thought to use a non-Christmas DSP paper, Timeless Portrait, as a Christmas paper? I know, right. But, it works! And, works so elegantly. I’m soo in LOVE with this card!

Here are some more shots. I just could not help myself. This is a Double Z Fold card.

This picture shows how my belly band is 1/8 wide (thanks Simply Scored) to accommodate the thickness of this multi-folded card.

I’ll say it again, I like LOVE this card! Although it was lots of work – my patterns just HAD to line up – I WILL be making more of these for gifts…..
