This gift card holder is my last Falliday Fest Challenge project. I have one tutorial to do tonight. I was inspired by thegift card that bejoyce did. When I watched the instructional video she linked to, this looked simple enough even for me. I am project challenged when there is cutting and measuring involved. I still had this DSP out from yesterday's card, so I used that and a couple of dies from Impression Obsession. This also qualifies for today's Ways to Use It challenge to use ribbon. I didn't do anything very creative with my ribbon and twine, but they are in there! No stamping on this item at all, though I may stamp a Christmas greeting on the inside. I used a SB Labels Four die which is a similar shape to the SU Top Note Die. I cut this from white since I line the inside with he DSP as well and there was no place to write. EDIT: I decided that the white snowflakes were too stark, so I die cut some in Mint Macaroon and glued them over top and added DD Glitter.

Great card for both challenges. That little spray of foliage and pine-cones is sweet. There are so many great gift-card holders out there that it makes me wish I had more need of them!
