Crafty Gift Card Holder by Lynn Dionne

Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let's combine two stamps sets today to create a fun "Crafty Tool Bag" gift card holder! We will be using the Ai Craft Bag and Die Set (5502) and the Ai Tool Bag and Die Set (5503). I thought the tool bag looked a bit like the craft tote that I bring with me when I am going to a friends house to do some crafting. So let's fill it with all of the fun elements from the Craft Bag Set including the scissors, pens, ruler, pencils, notebook, etc. When you die cut this little tool bag with your dies...it will cut out all of these openings and pockets so that you have a place to tuck in all of your fun craft supplies!

To create a fun pattern for this bag we will stamp the tool bag onto some pretty lavender floral paper from Lawn Fawn. We will stamp the tool bag image again on some white cardstock and cut out some of the trim work for additional interest.

Next we can stamp and color all of the crafty supplies using the Tombow Twintone Dual Tip Markers in the Brights colors! These bright colors will look great on our little gift card holder! Let's blend these colors using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Blender Pen....but you could also use a water brush here as well!

We can tuck all of these items into our craft bag! Now let's create the Gift Card Holder using the Ai Envelope GCH Die Set (5344). This is so quick and easy to assemble!

We can also create a notecard for the inside of the gift card holder and add a few more crafty elements here as well. A few buttons, scissors and a pretty bow will complete this notecard!

And finally...for the front of the gift card holder...we can add a few baubles and a bow!

Your crafty friends will love this....especially if you add a gift card to their favorite craft store!!!

I love it. The idea of matching the card holder to the gift card category (crafting, hardware, flowers, restaurants, clothing, movies, etc.) is genius. Usually it matches the occasion. Teens especially love gift cards and they are hard to buy for, but this ups the presentation . Thank you.
