Quick and Easy Gift Card Holder Idea using the Quite Curvy Bundle

11/30/2020

Christmas gift card holder ideas using the Tree Angle stamp set and Poinsettia Place patterned paper from Stampin' Up!
With many avoiding stores this holiday season and mailing gifts instead of getting together to celebrate, I think gift cards are going to be more even more popular gift option this year. These unique gift card holders are quick and easy to make. Plus, since they are a card instead of a box, they are easy to mail or tuck under your Christmas tree. Each of these handmade gift card holders uses the same basic design and the new Curvy dies from Stampin' Up! So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Cutting Dimensions for This Easy Gift Card Holder

Cardstock (base): 5 1/2" x 11", scored at 4 1/4" and 8 1/2"
Patterned Paper (front top): 3 1/4" x 5 1/4"
Patterned Paper (front bottom): 2 1/8" x 5 1/4"
Patterned Paper (inside): 2 1/2" x 5 1/4"
Whisper White (inside): 2 1/4" x 2 1/4"

Christmas Gift Card Holder Ideas

This short video shows the steps for putting this simple gift card holder together. It's easy to do, but you need to know exactly how to position the dies and where to put the adhesive. The gift card slips into the left side of the inside of the card. There is a small piece of Whisper White cardstock on the right where you can write a message and sign your name.

This Christmas gift card holder uses the 'Tis the Season patterned paper. The three pine trees are cut with the Stitched Triangle dies. The sentiment is heat embossed with white embossing powder. The stamp is from the Tree Angle stamp set. For a little extra bling, I added star embellishments to the top of the each of the trees.

The second holiday gift card holder uses the Poinsettia Place patterned paper. I cut the poinsettia on the front from the patterned paper and layered it over ribbon from the Trimming the Town Ribbon Combo Pack and the Forever Greenery Ribbon Combo Pack. I tied the Old Olive ribbon in a loopy bow and hid the center of it under the poinsettia.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Merry Moose stamp set with Soft Suede ink.

Easy Gift Bag Topper and Holiday Gift Tags

Holiday gift tags using the Snowflake Splendor patterned paper, the Joy dies, and the Tree Angle stamp set from Stampin' Up!
Did you hit the stores for Black Friday this morning? Perhaps you surfed the net for some hot cyber deals. Once all those gifts come, you're going to want to wrap them and I have the perfect solution for easy gift wrap that's personalized and beautiful. The Snowflake Splendor Suite makes beautiful holiday gift wrap. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Gift Bag Topper

This gift bag topper takes a plain dollar store gift bag and makes it a beautiful handmade gift wrap. Plus, with this type of topper, there is no need for tissue paper. I don't know about you, but I'm horrible at making the tissue paper in a gift bag look pretty. Usually it ends up looking like a rumpled mess. But this bag topper keeps your present secret from snooping eyes without the tissue paper.

The piece of Pool Party cardstock is cut the width of the bag and twice the length you want for the front. Then, score along the center and fold in half. Laying the piece over the gift bag, mark where the outside edges of the handles are. Using a Paper Trimmer, carefully cut between the lines about 1/4" in from the fold. Then, snip from the fold to the cut line. This piece slides over the handles and closes the top of the bag.

The front of the gift bag topper is decorated with Snowflake Splendor patterned paper and stamps from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set. To finish, the handle is tied with a piece of Pool Party sheer ribbon. 
This simple tag is made with the Joy dies from the Piece and Joy Bundle. I cut the layers from Balmy Blue cardstock, Pacific Point cardstock, and Balmy Blue Glimmer paper. The top is tied with a piece of Snowflake Splendor ribbon and some white baker's twine.

To make the snowflake on my second tag really pop, I adhered it to a piece of foam adhesive before cutting it with the die. The end of this tag is tied with both the Snowflake Splendor and the Pool Party sheer ribbons.
