Step by step instructions for Quick gift card holder

Cut the paper and score as noted in the table. Cut the 2-1/4″ flap at an angle, from tip to about halfway to the first scoreline. Valley fold both scorelines. Add a strong adhesive such as Tear ‘N Tape to the outside edges of the diagonal flap, fold up and adhere, creating a pocket. Place gift card in the pocket.

Adhere one of the pieces of the Snowflake Magic Specialty Paper to the top inside of the holder. Fold the top flap down, covering the gift card. Adhere the remaining piece of Snowflake Magic Specialty Paper to the front.

Wrap a piece of Iridescent ribbon around the width of the gift card holder and tie in a knot. Diecut a large snowflake from Basic White cardstock. I used the largest snowflake from the Chic Die Set. Thread a piece of thin sparkly silver ribbon through the snowflake and tie it around the first ribbon over the knot.

Grab a Basic White envelope and the remaining piece of Snowflake Magic Specialty Paper. Add liquid glue to the back of the envelope flap, adhere the paper, and trim around the flap. Done!
