You just take the 5 in 1 envelope template that Stampin' Up! sells. You only trace around the body of the large envelope so you have a long rectangle shape with a domed top. Make sure you score where the rounded flap folds. Then you fold down the flap, and fold the rectangle up in half. Voila, a nifty purse style gift card holder. I usually trace the top flap in a contrasting solid color and glue it on top. For the gift card sleeve inside that goes onto the middle panel, you just take a 3 1/8 by 3 3/4 inch piece of paper and sticky strip 3 edges (leave one short side open to stick the gift card in) or with a very thin line of liquid glue (I love monoaqua) and stick to the inside middle. I like to then put a greeting on that. Sounds complicated, but once you make one, you'll get the jist.
