60th Anniversary Card and Gift Card Holder


It's Fun Fold Friday here on my blog and today I'm sharing a card and gift card holder that a family member asked if I could make for them. I was happy to do so ... and since the couple celebrating their 60th Anniversary love to spend time in the Muskoka's this is what I came up with.


I used several different dies by Karen Burniston, including the Label Charm Pop Up for the card. The scenic paper was a good match but since it was a special occasion I also wanted some sparkle & shine. That came from the rainbow holographic cardstock.


I have had the Pop Up Gift Card Holder for several years and I still get a lot of use out of it. This time I turned it so the gift card slides in from the bottom and their personal message would be revealed when the gift card was removed. 


Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
