The Trucking Along bundle (an Online Exclusive in my Stampin’ Store) is an all-occasion crafting set of stamps and coordinating punch and today I’ll demonstrate how to make a slide-up gift card holder to present gift cards, money, gift certificates or other flat items for ANY occasion:
This is the outside of the holder and below you’ll see the holiday version we created at the Christmas Card Class in Cedar City a few weeks ago. When you open the card, the pocket slides up to show the gift inside!
You probably noticed the coordinating envelopes…as long as you are stamping the truck for the front of the card, you may as well stamp a second time on the envelope to make it festive!
Cutting and scoring instructions:
Card base (I used Fresh Freesia for the birthday version): 11″ x 4-1/4″ scored at 1-3/4″ and 7-1/4″, plus the same color card stock 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ for the mat on the top layer.
Sliding insert: THICK white card stock 6-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ scored at 1/2″, then flipped to the back side and scored at 5-1/4″ (I explain why in the video)
Designer Series Paper: 4″ x 3″ for top layer, 3-1/2″ x 4″ for top part of card and 1-1/2″ x 4″ for bottom section.
Watch for the tips to make this easy to assemble:
If your significant other starts asking what YOU WANT for Christmas (because it is now less than 2 weeks away 😆), did you know I offer gift certificates? They can be used on an order through me and/or toward one of my classes or events! Send them my way and I’ll take care of them (and you).
If they are really early, they could take advantage of a JUST ANNOUNCED one-day of FREE SHIPPING on December 14th (on orders over $75):
