Sometimes gift cards can seem a little impersonal. However, if it's to someplace that you know the person really likes, then that's not impersonal at all. And when you dress it up with a decorated gift card holder...you can't go wrong! I started with the green cardstock and then added pieces from the darling Echo Park Christmas paper. All of which is a part of the November kit.
And how about that pretty green seam binding ribbon? You bet, it's from the November kit, too. The silver tinsel is part of the November ribbon card. The little circle santa, the red scallop and the green trim at the top are part of an Echo Park sticker sheet.
I added a red button, baker's twine and a safety pin from my stash. The cardstock is cut to 4 1/4 " x 5 1/4". Score at 2 1/4 " from the bottom and sew the sides. Couldn't be easier! This is probably going to my son-in-law for Christmas. I think it will be hit with a gift card from one of his favorite places!
