CAARDvarks Challenge

At the Caardvark blog the challenge is to make a money or giftcard holder.

So I searched around the internet and found this neat

cardholder on "It's a stamp thing" blog.

I think it is a wonderful card for a gift card.

I made one for Christmas and

one for Chanukkah.

What do you need to make this?

a piece of card 4"x 8" and score at 4""

this is the box of the present

and another piece of 3"x 4 1/4" and score at 1,5

this is the lid of the present.

For the inside you need a piece of cardstock

4"x 2 3/4" and a punch to make the slits for the card.

Of course you can decorate the card to your liking

with scrap paper.

Inside the card I used some velcro dots

as a closure for the card.

The bow of the card is made with 2 sizes of oval punches.

First you punch with the smallest oval and than with the larger one.

3 of each color make a great bow glued to the back of the card

and coverd with one of the little oval left over scraps.

Fot the Christmas giftcard holder I used a stamp by Just Rite and colored it with copic markers.

Tha Chanukkah gift card holder is made with paper and stamps from Club Scrap.

Have a creative day!
