Gift Card Holders

A few weeks ago here at the Cove, we held a gift card holder class that taught how to make 3 different styles of gift cards. These are quick and easy, a great way to use smaller scraps while making a BIG impression.

The first one is an elegant pop-out card utilizing the cuttlebug combo butterfly set which will cut and emboss in two easy steps. Love this die & embossing folder. You get 3 different embossing styles to choose from.



















Next is a masculine faux leather gift card which utilizes both wet and dry embossing techniques. You'll also learn how to make your own custom sized envelope for this gift card using Martha Stewart's scoreboard.



















And last, but not least, is the matchbook gift card holder using some Kaisercraft rub-ons and dp from their Utopia line.



















We'll be repeating this class throughout the month of August & September. You can check out the calendar of classes for dates & times. Reserve your seat today and gear up for the holidays.
