Mini Envelope Money Holder

Are you enjoying the fun mini envelope projects we’ve been sharing? Today Designer Samantha Taylor is joining us to share a fun mini envelope money holder. This project is great for birthday cards, graduation and fun summer gifts.

My nieces and nephews are starting to get older, so we often give them money for their birthdays.  We like to come up with fun ways to give them their money (last year we gave my nephew his all in nickles).  For my nephew’s upcoming birthday I wanted to make a money holder card that is a little bit different, so I came up with this mini envelope money holder.Mini envelope money holder via @samanthajt for @PebblesInc using the #BirthdayWishes collection. #graduation #birthday #card #handmade
I started by creating a card base that, instead of being folded in half, has a 1/4″ spine to it.  My card base measures 5 1/2″ x 8 3/4″ and is scored at 4 1/4″ and 4 1/2″.  Then I folded my card and decorate the front of my card just like I would any card, using the super fun new Birthday Wishes collection.

The inside is where this card really gets different.  I grabbed 5 mini envelopes, scored those envelopes at 1/4″, and then attached the 1/4″ score area to the 1/4″ spine of my card.

I attached 5 envelopes in all to card.  You could do less envelopes than that, but I wouldn’t suggest doing more.  I used some stickers and die cut shapes to decorate the front sides of the mini envelopes, and put money inside each of the envelopes.  To make this extra fun, you could put different denominations in each envelope.  Alternately, you could stuff the envelopes with love notes, movie tickets, or IOU coupons.  Mini envelope money holder via @samanthajt for @PebblesInc using the #BirthdayWishes collection. #graduation #birthday #card #handmade
Because this card is thicker than a normal card, I’ve created a special box envelope for this card.

    Samantha always comes up with things that are popular but with a slightly different twist to them to make the fresh, new and oh so creatively fun! Thanks for another great idea I just have to make.
