How to Make Quick and Easy Gift Card Holders
Hello, friends!
Today, I’m sharing the next segment of quick and easy handmade DIY gift card holders. These are the perfect way to add a personal touch to your holiday gifting. If you’ve been following along, you’ll notice these holders are an extension of yesterday’s gift set projects, so everything ties together beautifully.
For these holders, I used the Stampin’ Up! Season of Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper, which adds a touch of festive sparkle, and paired it with luxurious gold foil. The combination creates an elegant, polished look that’s sure to impress.
Why Handmade Gift Card Holders?
Gift cards are practical and appreciated, but let’s be honest—they’re not the most exciting to give. That’s where handmade gift card holders come in! They transform your simple gift into a thoughtful, personalized presentation that shows you care.
If you’re new to crafting, don’t worry—this is a great beginner-friendly project! With just a few supplies and a little time, you can create something special that makes your gift memorable.
Designer Paper Inspiration
I’ve used the Season of Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper for several other projects, including Star Gatefold Photo Cards and other fun fold designs. All of these projects coordinate beautifully, so you can create matching sets for the holidays. Be sure to check out the tutorials for those as well!
The Details That Shine
To make these gift card holders extra special, I used the Christmas Labels Stamp and Die Bundle for the sentiment on the belly band. I heat embossed the words in gold to match the gold foil accents, creating a cohesive and elegant design. It’s these little details that really make your handmade projects stand out!
Mailing Your Gift Card Holders
Wondering how to send these beauties? Great news—they fit perfectly inside a standard envelope! No need for special packaging, making them both practical and pretty.

I’ve created a free PDF tutorial to make these quick and easy gift card holders a breeze to create. Inside, you’ll find step-by-step instructions, measurements, and a supply list. It’s everything you need to get started!
