Wrapped in Warmth Gift Card Holder

I love how these Kraft gift bags look embossed with the Cable Knit embossing folder.  I got the idea from Lorri Heiling’s site – she made a really cute bag like this decorated with “Cookie Cutter Christmas” (see it here).  I wanted something masculine, so I used the Warmth & Cheer Suite for my gift card holder.

Here’s what the inner card looks like.  I made the slot for the gift card with a stem framelit from the Everyday Jars collection.  Its length is perfect – what a great alternative to the Word Window that was never quite long enough!

Here’s a view of just the Whisper White part of the card (this one is stamped with a different greeting from the same stamp set).  It measures 4″ x 6 1/4″, and the slot is located about 2 1/2″ above the bottom edge.

Just be careful when adhering this piece to the cardstock – place adhesive above the slot, but not directly below it.  The gift card will slide into the space below the slot.  The Basic Black cardstock measures 4 1/4″ x 6 1/2″.
