Do you give gift cards as gifts? If so, you need a way to package them! In today’s post, I share an idea for a z-fold gift card holder using Stampin’ Up!’s Reindeer Days products.
This fun and festive Reindeer Days Suite Collection features a variety of reindeer-themed stamps, dies, and coordinating products. Although the cute little reindeer pictured above looks like it might be difficult to create, it’s not! Be sure to watch the video below. I show you how quickly this little guy goes together.
(Note: Those cute Peppermint embellishments pictured in the bottom left corner have been super popular and have been in and out of stock since the September-December catalog went live.)
