I have a girly card to share today. I needed a dual purpose card/gift-card holder for a little girl's birthday. My daughter received a birthday invite last year that employed this idea, and I stole it and tweaked it a bit for my own purposes:
The shape of the card I cut out using my Silhouette. I probably spent as long drawing the darned thing on the computer as I would have if I just created it by hand, but now I have the template I can use over and over (if you're a Silhouette user and want the GSD file, let me know!)
When you lift the flap and open the purse, you can see the pocket I created inside by inserting some accordion-folded paper at the sides of the purse. It's just the right size for a gift card and the whole thing fits into a standard invitation-size envelope.
My daughter was able to create a small 3x2 card to slip inside the purse as well. Super cute!Supplies
- Whisper White cardstock
- Michael's slab (name long since forgotten)
- SU! Rhinestone brad
- Got Flowers flower
- EK Success flower punches
- 2-way glue
- Dazzlin' diamonds glitter
