Easy DIY Gift Card Holder with Patterned Paper

I give so many gift cards at Christmas and I love being able to give them in pretty packaging! This gift card holder is so easy to make and it's as pretty on the back as it is on the front because the patterned paper wraps all around the outside.

We made this gift card holder for last night's Mystery Stamping over in the On Y Go! Stamping Facebook group. You can pop over there to see the replay if you'd like, and I have all of the cutting dimensions and supply lists for you below.

​So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Delivering Cheer Christmas Card with Gift Card Holder

I love the Delivering Cheer stamp set! It's just so cute. Here, I've paired it with the Sweet Stockings patterned paper. This fun paper has cute and cuddle cats, dogs, and stockings on one side and bold prints on the other. I chose to use the striped pattern for this card. I added a few matte dots to the tree for decoration.

Penguin Christmas Gift Card Holder

I wanted to use this fun card design to create a simple stamping card. There is no coloring on this card, just stamps, ink, paper, and a little ribbon. It's such an adorable little penguin and I love dressing him up as Rudolph with antlers and a red nose.

A Stepped-Up Version of this DIY Gift Card Holder

I decided that I wanted to make a version of this handmade Christmas card that was a little fancier than the others. I used the Merriest Moments stamp set and coordinating dies as well as the Seasonal Labels dies to create this belly band for this Christmas card. I stamped, cut, and layered the various pieces to create this beautiful poinsettia. It takes a little more time, but it's not hard to create!
