Birthday Gift Card Holder with Tutorial

Hey guys! Today, I'm sharing my latest Doodlebug Design Design Team Project and this time I made a colorful multi gift card holder / folder with a cute birthday theme. It opens up to reveal 3 pockets and space for photos, cards, notes, and embellishments. What a fun and creative way to give gift cards! 🌈🦄🧁

I created it with the adorable Fairy Tales Collection and white card stock. I just love the cute unicorn on the front with her colorful rainbow mane and party hat!

The folder opens up into 3 sections to reveal fun patterned papers and embellies. On the left side, I added the Unicorn Doodle-pops. In the middle, I chose a cupcake sticker from the This & That sheet. And on the right, I used die cuts from the Odds & Ends, a Boutique Button, and the castle shaped Cute Clips. But wait ... there's more!

 

 

Open the flaps and there are 3 pockets and space to add photos, cards, and more. I used the cute gingham treat bags. They're perfect for holding gift cards, cash, or tickets to a fun event. The castle and unicorn clips are just adorable, but they also hold the flaps down and keep the cash in! 😉

 

Here is a diagram for the measurements of the gift card holder ...

 

 

You'll need one sheet of 12x12 card stock for the base ...

1. Start by scoring the 12x12 card stock at 3.5", 4", 8", and 8.5".
2. Rotate the paper 90 degrees to the left.
3. Score again at 3" and 7.5".
4. Trim out the areas shown in black on the diagram above.

 

You could make this with ANY collection so it could also be used for Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's / Father's Day, graduation, or ... a fabulous thank you gift. After the gift cards are removed, the recipient could still use this by adding photos to the pockets as a cute little keepsake! 

I love this idea and I hope you do too. Have a wonderful day! 😊
