Bow Gift Card Holder

I have made this Bow Gift Card Holder for years to sell at craft fairs and they have alway’s been a huge hit.  I was using the now retired Stampin Up Gift Bow Die (but good news…it’s on clearance!)  I’ve been asked multiple times to do a detailed video on how to recreate this, so I’ve reworked the card to a bow you make with your Envelope Punch Board…..and I’ve provided a video tutorial!!!

The first Bow Gift Card holder is made with the This is Christmas Specialty DSP.  This paper is so great, it’s a bit thinner than the traditional DSP that Stampin’ Up produces so it bends really nicely and there are 24 sheets – 4 of 6 different 2 sided designs.

My second card feature the Candy Cane Lane DSP which is part of our current DSP sale, buy 3 get one free.

Once you open the Gift Card Holder, you have a little pocket for your gift cards (or actual cash), and a little note.

Gift Card Cuts

Instead of giving the paper colors to cut, I only gave your the panel types so you can easily use any DSP and change up your gift card holders.

The circles I used for the greeting are as follows (bottom to top):

I lined up all my smooth circles up Largest to Smallest and numbered them 1 – 8, and my Scallop Circles Largest to Smallest and labeled them A – H.  Now I can just list the letter/number combination of my layered dies.

• Scallop – F
• Circle – 6
• 1 1/2 Punch
• Greeting – 7
