How To Tuesday

“When I first got into card making, these were some of the first “fun fold” cards I made, and they’re still my go-to cards for fast and easy gift card giving.  They are tiny, but oh-so-cute, and people love opening them and seeing the fun gift card inside.”  – Tiffany Hood, Pebbles Design Team Member

First, cut a piece of 12” x 4” cardstock.  Score it at 3”, 6” and 9”, and accordion fold it.

Then, place adhesive on three edges of the inside of the cardstock as shown with yellow highlighter.

And then press together so you have an inside folded section, and two outside sections. (The top fold shouldn’t have any adhesive across it, this is where the gift card will go when we cut the opening).

Then on the fold, cut with scissors about ½ inch down from the fold, and ¼ inch in from both sides.

This is where your gift card will go.

Make a notch in the opening using a circle punch.  I’ve used a 1 ¼ inch punch here, but any size, and any shape, will work.  This makes it easier to get the gift card out.

Now the inside is complete!

Decorate the front as desired, and then wrap a piece of ribbon around the gift card and adhere.  Make sure to glue so that the ends of the ribbon meet at the top.

Insert your gift card, and tie a bow at the top to close.  Embellish, and give away!
