EDITED: I just added the photo of the stamped/designed wallet! I did this first thing this morning to show you a stepped up version!
This uses the new set that Demo’s got from Stampin Up. I think its called Time Well Spent. I colored it with my Copic markers, then spritzed with my black marker!
Here is the inside view
I basically did a OSW-then cut it up!
Happy Saturday!!!
I love Saturday’s. This week since I am feverishly working on Christmas stuff- I figured I’d share a newer version of my “wallet” gift card holder! This one uses JUST paper/cardstock to hold the card.
Its super easy, and dresses up any gift card you may give.
You can keep it simple or go ALL out.
Tis the season, and I assume people give these out alot this time of year. I know we do 😀
This simple template can be done in under 3 minutes, after you first try it out. So you could mass produce these holders for anyone whom you are giving one to!
Here is a diagram for you to print/follow. Any questions-just ask here, and I will answer in the comments section.
Get a 6×6 piece of cardstock/patterned paper
Step 1
score at 3 1/2
Step 2
Turn cardstock to other end. Score at 2 1/2 and 3
3) Trim excess piece at 3 inch end (long end, on shorter measurement). Fold in smaller flap, then fold up, to create a “pocket”.
4) From scrap-cut a 1 inch piece. Score at 1/2 inch. Then adhere the 1/2 inch piece to back of wallet.
I like to use my Basic Grey magnetic closures, but to keep costs down you could use velcro-or the style I used in the link above, for the older version of the wallet.
You could even punch a slot to fit the flap closure into!
Let me know how you like it.
Send us a link here should you decide to create one.
Remember this is for inspiration ONLY-and not to be used for submissions or contest enteries 😀
Tomorrow I have a really cool project/gift idea, so come back again.

These gift wallets are adorable!!! Of course Lauren, you make them look OHHH SOOOO EASY to cut and create 🙂 I will have to print out your diagram and see if I can get through it, as we have older neices and nephews who only want gift certificates, so this would work out well. Either that or they’ll just get stuck in a white envelope !~~ hahahaha
These are fabulous. I am always on the prowl for great papercrafts. What a great gift idea.

SUPER-cute wallet, Lauren! TFS!
Love IT…..I tried to follow someone elses instructions, but failed misreably. Theirs was inspired by you, so I came here and followed your instructions and it turned out
and SO EASY. Thanks for such a cute inspiration to dress up those Giftcards!
I really love this idea … but I’m wondering … how do you keep the gift card from slipping out of the end?
Do you think some glue dots could hold it in place?
[…] way to dress up a gift card. The gift card just slides out of the pocket. Check out this really fabulous tutorial from Lauren Meader to make a really cute gift card […]
