Hi, Jingle here today. I am sharing an adorable and Clever Thanks Gift Card Holder that incorporates a gift card directly into the design of your card!
Besides just adhesives, Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L also carries some amazing products that assist in stepping up your projects with unique and creative ideas!
Gift Card Holder Element
For this gift card holder focal point, I used the Keepsake Envelopes Mix to create the perfect carrier for my gift card.
Many stores offer a variety of gift card design options to choose from. I chose a cute book shop gift card that I knew would work well with my stash of papers. I started with a subtle pattern for the background and centered the largest Keepsake envelope. With my E-Z Dots® Repositionable Refillable Dispenser, the gift card was held exactly where I wanted it inside the envelope.
3D Foam Strips Large White strips were used to place and pop-up the die-cut books. Designer’s Note: trim the adhesive to fit behind the books. Also, I covered the openings in the books with the strips to add foil for a shiny accent! I used the bronze foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors. When applying, make sure the color side is facing you before rubbing to transfer the color to the foam.
Finish with a Sentiment
I decided to add a large sentiment to the top of the card that allows the envelope to open, but maintains a fluid design throughout the card front. Die-cut the sentiment from Cardstock layered over 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small Black to add a bit of simple dimension. The curved design of the sentiment brings it all together.
A strip of fun typewriter patterned paper finishes off the bottom of the card, playing into the book theme.
This is a great card to give to a teacher or any reader who has helped you out. What a great way to show your appreciation! I hope you give the Keepsake envelopes a try next time you want to include a gift card as a gift with your card!
Thanks for stopping by!
