boughs of holly gift card holder fun fold card

This is an easy gift card holder fun fold!
This is my version of a card I showed from my fun fold swap blog post on Monday, using the Boughs of Holly Suite (#159612) Collection.

Measurements:
BASE: Real Red CS 5 1/2″ x 10″ scored at 4 1/4″
and 8 1/2″
Gift Card Holder insert: Thick Basic White CS
3 1/2″ x 7″ scored at 3 1/2″
Inside layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White
DSP on small flap: 1 1/4″ x 5 1/4″
Front Layers:
Basic White CS 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
Boughs of Holly DSP 4″ x 5 1/4″
scrap of Basic White for the sentiment die cut

Adhere the 1 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP to the front of the inside small right hand flap.

I stamped a holly leaf on the lower portion of the inside back layer and adhered in to the card base middle panel.

Using a Blending Brush I added color in Soft Succulent shade to the middle portion of the white cardstock, so when I adhere the gift card holder the white will stand out on the greenish background tone.

Fold the 3 1/2″ x 7″ Basic White CS in half at the score line. Stamp or decorate the left hand side of the score line and adhere the outer side edges together making a pocket. Run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine with a small die to add a tab to the gift card pocket to allow for easier removal of the gift card. I used a smaller circle from the Stylish Shapes die set (#159183). Flip the pocket over and adhere two lines of Tear N Tape to the bottom of the pocket directly opposite of the tab you just created on the pocket.

Adhere the pocket at the score seem of the right flap in the middle of the card.

The flap will fold inward on the card tucking the gift card pocket inside the card.

Adhere the DSP to the Basic White CS front layer and adhere both layers to the card front.
Stamp and die cut your sentiment and adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the bottom right hand side of the card front. I also colored the white cardstock with a blending brush for added color and dimension.
