I used the Stampin’ Up! So Many Stars stamp set and a little of the Night Before Christmas DSP to create a holiday gift card holder to share with you today.  I did a video tutorial for making this card on my Facebook page yesterday.  I’ve also uploaded it to my YouTube Channel so you can view it there too!

I started by scoring a 5″ x 7-1/4″ panel of Night of Navy/Pretty Peacock card stock at 1-3/4″ and 5-1/4″.  I adhered panels of Night Before Christmas 6″ x 6″ DSP to the two ends (outside the score lines) and then folded the flaps closed.  I adhered the bottom flap to the back panel with Tear & Tape Adhesive on both sides and folded the top flap down.

For the belly band, I scored a 1-1/2″ x 8″ panel of Cherry Cobbler card stock at 2-1/2″ and again at 6-1/8″.  I adhered a 1-3/8″ x 6″ strip of the Night Before Christmas DSP to the Cherry Cobbler panel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue leaving approximately 1″ uncovered on either end (if you have 12×12 DSP, you can simply cut the panel to 1-3/8″ x 8″ and eliminate the gaps at the end).  I folded the belly band on the score lines and adhered it together with Tear & Tape Adhesive.

I slid the band over the gift card holder and then adhered a 2″ Circle Punch from Night of Navy/Pretty Peacock card with Tear & Tape Adhesive so that it covered the gap in the DSP.  I stamped the sentiment from the So Many Stars photopolymer stamp set in Night of Navy/Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  I cut around the sentiment with a Stitched Shapes Die and then adhered the die cut circle to the Night of Navy/Pretty Peacock circle with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I added a Star Designer Element next to the sentiment.

I stamped the sentiments from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler and Night of Navy/Pretty Peacock inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock and then cut the panel with a Stitched Rectangle Die.  I adhered the die cut inside the gift card pocket with SNAIL.

You can see a list of supplies needed to create this card, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.
