Father’s Day Gift Card Tag & Tutorial

Hey everyone, I’m so excited to be sharing a fun and easy Father’s Day Gift Card Holder project over on the We R Memory Keeper's blog. I created an awesome tag titled "Amazing Dad" that's perfect for a restaurant, home improvement or store gift card. It turned out soooo cute ... I figured I had to share the quick tutorial!

To create the tag, I used the new 123 Punch Board, an angle Corner Chomper, and the trim and score board (links below).

To start, I cut the pocket portion of my tag from navy card stock 3 1/2” x 10”, and scored the piece at 5”.

With the piece folded in half on the score line, I used the “angle” side of the pink Corner Chomper to create tag corners.

Next, I created a notch on one short side of the card stock for my “shirt collar” by using the center marks on the 123 Punch Board.  Then I adhered the piece together on the long sides to create a pocket, and punched a small round hole in the back to hold my jute cord.

I cut a piece of plaid paper (from the We R Memory Keepers Storytime collection) to create my shirt. 3 1/4” x 4 3/4”.  I followed the same steps to create the tag corners and “shirt collar” notch.

I adhered the plaid paper to the front of the navy background tag.  To create the bow tie, I followed the directions for the XS bow on the 123 Punch Board.

Finally, I added the bow tie to the front of the “shirt” and then added a few buttons and a cutting file for the title called "Dad Titles" or "Amazing Dad" (links below).
