GIFT CARD “BOX” CARD

 This is another card we made as a "Mystery Card" at our team meeting and I thought it was so fun and creative I had to share it with my customers.  Thank you Patti for sharing. Any color cardstock and any Designer Series Paper will work depending on the occasion.  You can include a gift card or not. 

GIFT CARD “BOX” CARD

 HOW TO CREATE AND ASSEMBLE: 

  1. Fold and burnish your card base (5” x 7” scored at 3 1/4”) on the score line.  Open and put a thin strip of glue (or tear and tape) on the sides of the front fold to create a “pocket”. Set aside.
  2. Adhere your DSP strips (3 1/4” x 1 1/4” & 5 1/4” x 1 1/4”)to the corresponding pieces of Mossy cardstock (3 1/4” 1 3/8” & 5 3/8” x 1 3/8”).
  3. Adhere the longer strip to the strip of Mauve cardstock (5 1/2” x 1 1/2”) and the other strip gets centered and adhered to the front cover.
  4. On the small scrap of Beige cardstock, stamp sentiment in Moody Mauve then die cut. Run the ribbon through and tie a bow.  Set aside.
  5. Stamp sentiment in Mossy on the (3 3/4” x 4”) piece of Beige cardstock. Run a thin strip of glue (or Tear & Tape) across the top and adhere your other strip from step 3centered across the top.  This will slide in to the pocket making the card look like a gift box.  
  6. Adhere your tag and bow to front flap.
  7. Embellish with a couple of gems.
  8. Since I did not have more DSP to make the envelope coordinate, I ran the flap of the envelope through the Emboss machine with a Christmas embossing folder.
