Another gift card holder. I tried making the pop up smaller 4" W x 4.75" T. It helps because there is less to match up but I'm not sure if it's the final one. I chose double sided paper from Creative Imaginations. Design by Helen Dardik. There are light blue stars on a dark blue background on one side and the other has white and red stripes with a 6x6 of white hearts on same dark blue. I cut the base with the Card Base Pop 'n Cuts die from Stampin Up. Then I placed the Sizzix Pop 'n Cuts Magnetic Insert Die - suitcase and placed my heart paper on it and ran it through the Big Shot. I folded it in the right places then trimmed the handle off with scissors. I adhered it onto the fold. I wrapped a piece of red cotton ribbon onto the join and tied it in a knot on the front. I took the scrap from the 12" length and trimmed and placed at the top of the card front. I added a light blue greeting below the striped piece. I had flagged the right hand end with the SU Banner Triple punch. Again, I tucked the tabs into the slots to keep it closed. The gift card is held in place with a Zot.

Gift Card Holder - Version 2
Another Gift Card Holder still using the Stampin Up Card Base Pop'nCuts die. I cut this one from a Dill card stock. This time I used the Sizzix Pop 'n Cuts Magnetic Insert Die - Suitcase, 3-D (Pop-Up) for the inside. I cut a piece of designer paper with triangle trees on it. It was trimmed to 9 inches tall and 4 inches wide. I trimmed the suitcase handle off with scissors. I chose this insert die because it was so close to the size of a gift card. The gift card is held in place with a Zot.I've added a sticky note for my sentiment which will allow it to be reused.
The front has a piece of ivory card stock embossed with the Stampin Up Vintage Wallpaper folder. I adhered that to the card front then added a red cotton ribbon along the fold. I cut a red scallop oval with Spellbinder Nestabilities then a smooth oval with the corresponding die. I cut a triangle tree from the scrap of the designer paper. Added a gold glitter star cut with the Sizzix Star die. A SU Modern Label punchie with the Word Window greeting punchie. Not sure the straight edge of the embossed layer is the best but I will continue to tweek the design.
Again, the fact that the card keeps itself closed with the tab/slot is great.
