DIY Paper Gift Card Holder

This DIY Paper Gift Card Holder is a sweet handmade addition to giving a gift card for Valentine’s Day, birthdays, Christmas, or any other holiday. Glue Dots and Lawn Fawn supplied the materials for this project.

Are you ready for Valentine’s Day? Maybe your special loved one wants flowers and candy, but there’s also a good chance that they want a gift card to their favorite place! I know many people who do not like giving gift cards because they see them as an impersonal gift. Whenever I give a gift card, I find that adding a handmade element softens the impersonalization of a gift card. Today I’m breaking out the Cricut Cuttlebug to show you how to make this cute DIY Paper Gift Card Holder.

    This card holder is looking fantastic and it is really easy to make. My son has decided to make a lot of these card holders and give it as a return gift on his birthday.
