Create 5 Gift Card Holders with the Festive Tags Kit
Ready to enter a festive world of handmade holiday gifting? I’m diving into the delightful ‘Festive Tags’ kit by Stampin’ Up! And showing you how you can add to, and transform, the kit to not only create tags, but five unique and fun gift card holders. Each of these is perfect for the holiday season.
The gift card holders obviously hold gift cards but are also spacious enough to hold cash or checks making it a clever way to gift ‘money gifts’ of all types!
The Festive Tags Kit comes with all the supplies you need to make 15 gift tags (3 each of 5 different designs) but you can also make 10 tags and then use the remaining kit elements to make the 5 Gift Card Holders I designed.
How I Made 5 Festive Tag Gift Card Holders Adding A Few Extra Supplies
Ornament Gift Card Holder
I started this project by making the ornament tag as instructed in the kit. Then, I took a classic gift card envelope (0n sale now but retiring soon!), added 4 dimensionals to the back of the tag and centered it onto the envelope. Viola! You now have a cute gift card holder.
Poinsettia Card & Gift Card Holder
This base of project #2 starts with a white note card.
I then used 2 pieces of Flirty Flamingo; one 4” x 5-1/4” embossed with Distressed Tile Embossing Folder; the second piece 4” x 2” and adhered to the inside of the card to form the gift card pocket. You’ll want to watch the video to see how it’s made.
To finish this card I applied the tag, banner, and floral die cut to the front of the card as shown.

Card base White 4-1/4 X 11. On the 11” side score at 1-1/2” and 5-1/2”.
