ALTERED GIFT CARD HOLDER
by CAROLE HOUSE
I created this gift card holder using the Fancy Pants Happy Holidays collection, Stampendous stamps, ribbon, gold cord, black ink pad, markers from Stampin' Up!, small hole punch, liquid adhesive, ice stickles glitter glue, and adhesive runner. First, I measured the front and back of the gift card holder, cut the patterned paper , and then glued it down using adhesive.
I cut a piece of pink paper , wadded it up using my hands, unfolding it and inking the edges with black ink. Then I created two ornaments to hang on the the Happy Holidays tag on the front using some gold cord.
I stamped the images and colored them in using the Stampin' Up! markers. I cut out the ornaments and added the ice stickles glitter glue.
Next, I measured the inside of the gift card holder and the cut out for the gift card. I cut the pink patterned paper and glue it down using adhesive.
After completing the outside cover and the inside of the gift card holder , I added some more patterned paper, ribbon, tree cutouts from one of the sheets of paper, and glued on some chipboard cutouts. It was a very simple project to complete.
I hope you enjoy it!
Carole
