Hello everyone and happy holidays! Today is Lori Whitlock's December Blog Hop and my blog is the first stop on the hop. But be sure to visit Lori's site also because she has a sale and more great products for you!
For my project today, I created a cute Christmas gift card holder that has 4 little pockets tucked inside. It's such a creative way to give a present and you could add different items like gift cards, money, photos, notes, tickets to an event, or clues to a holiday scavenger hunt. How fun!
I used Lori's 3x4 Library Pocket Mini Album file and the Echo Park, Santa Claus Collection also designed by Lori (links below). It's such a practical file and can be used again and again for birthdays, baby gifts, or ANY holiday.
To make it, I cut the base out of red card stock then decorated the cover with the 3x3 Christmas Cheer card from the 6x6 paper pad. On the flap, I added a green print and embellished with the scalloped border and 2025 from the sticker book.
Here's what it looks like when you open it up. I layered the pockets inside with more 6x6 pattern papers. Since the holder measures 3x4 inches, you can also use the cut apart cards. That's convenient!
I adhered a small Velcro circle on the flap to keep the items in the pockets secure. On the first page, I added a cute Santa paper and Christmas tree sticker. Then, I tucked a gift card inside to show how perfectly they fit.
I added stickers to the pocket fronts, but you could also add photos or handwritten notes as a fun surprise. I love the idea of customizing this specifically for your giftee. Add pictures of the both of you, a funny saying that you share, or let your kids add a sweet little drawing!
