Hi! Sharing today a quick tutorial for a cool pop-up gift card holder and matching envelope. Right on time for the end of school year 😊

The finished cards look like this:

Let’s make one!

You will need:
4” x 11” piece of cardstock for the card base
3 pieces of patterned paper, of size 4 1/8 “ x 4 3/8 “
7” x 7” piece of cardstock for the envelope

First, score the card base on the long side, at 4 ½ “, 5 ½” and 6 ½ “:

Fold the base in half and crease with bone folder:

Then, fold the other two score lines on the opposite direction. You should end up with this:

Next, adhere the patterned papers to the card base, and then secure the inner side of the “hill” in the center using a strong double-sided tape:

Our card base is now ready. To make the slit for the gift card, I have used a 3” scallop square punch to trim the long edge of the center “hill”. Make sure not to trim the corners!
(Note: I think a regular or round edge 3″ square punch would be better for this)

After trimming the edge, we have a slit that is perfect in size for inserting a gift card:

Our card is now ready!

To make the envelope, I used the envelope maker of Martha Stewart Score Board with custom measurements – A lines at 2 ½ “, B lines at 2 3/8 “.

Here are some more photos of the finished cards and envelopes:
