Gift cards are always a hit, but why settle for a plain envelope when you can make the presentation just as special as the gift itself? With Designer Series Paper, you can whip up festive holders in minutes that look thoughtful and handmade. The rich colors, gorgeous patterns, and holiday flair make even the simplest gift card feel like a keepsake. In this post, I’m sharing four creative and easy gift card holder designs—from quick folds to layered pockets—all simple enough for beginners yet stylish enough to impress, so your gifts for family, friends, teachers, or coworkers will look merry and bright in no time.
I’m making four different fun fold gift card holders using the Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper and the Traditional Labels stamps and dies from Stampin’ Up!—but you can easily swap in any paper and stamps to create these for any occasion.
