KIMONO GIFT CARDHOLDER

 KIMONO GIFT CARDHOLDER

CASED: KAREN TITUS

HOW TO CREATE & ASSEMBLE:

  1. This card is actually very easy to make (especially since I have already done all the scoring and cutting.)
  2. Score an 8 1/2” x 5 1/2” piece of Designer Series Paper at 2 1/8 on each side.
  3. Fold toward the middle to make a gatefold card. (See photo below.)

  4. With the fold lined up at the 2 mark, cut 3/4 in on each side.
  5. Fold each side toward the middle. Push in these side folds. (See below.)
    .  

  6. Make a collar by turning over corners at the top of the “kimono”.   

  7. Use a 1x 6 strip of the same paper to create the belly band and decorate. 

  8. You can decide if you want to have a writing space on the inside or a gift card holder, or a book marker. (See below.)   

  9. Use a piece of coordinating DSP to adhere to the envelope flap so the it coordinates with your kimono.
For fun I made a doctors coat using this fold snd it could just as easily be used to congratulate someone earning their different karate belts.  See the doctor's coat below.. ( I used non Stampin' Up! materials to embellish)

  • Coordinating color cardstock
