Envelope Gift Card Holders

I found a cute new Envelope Gift Card holder today from a new blogger, but experienced Stampin' Up Demo, Pam Morris.  I made a bit of a change that seemed to work better for me.  Here it is, isn't it cute?

Closed:

Open:

Begin with one of our standard sized envelopes.  I found that it folded better by opening the flap before scoring, this gives it a nice clean score that folds down nice and flat.

This gift card holder can be changed up simply by changing the DSP (Designer Series Paper) to match the occasion:  Christmas, Birthday, Graduation, etc. 

Attach a belly band around the center of the completed card.  Be sure to make it a tad loose depending on what you will be putting inside.  Better yet, put your gift card or cash inside the envelope first so you know your band will fit properly and can be slid off and on.  Decorate accordingly with the appropriate stamps and punches or die cuts.

Below you can see all the measurements needed for making this project. You should be able to click on the picture to make it bigger.
