Pop Up Gift Card Holder

Today I'm sharing a gift card holder card. It starts out as a regular card. The fun part is the easy to make pop up element for the inside that holds the gift card.  Let's take a look! 

As I said, make the card as usual on the outside. Here I added texture and details that go well with the Designer Paper Series (DSP). I love this style of DSP. It's so pretty and can be the star of the show all on its own! This is just a small piece of the paper and it still shines.

I kept a tone on tone color for the surrounding area and added a pop of color with the dragonfly. 

Now on the inside is where the action is! The pocket for the gift card is 4" x 3" then scored in the middle and folded in half to make a 4" x 1-1/2" pocket.  Glue the edges leaving enough space for the gift card to fit inside. 

The pop up element is very easy to make. Using a piece of cardstock 1" x 2-1/2", score every 1/2". Create a "box" and glue the overlap sections together. Next is to glue this to the inside of your card. Now you are ready to glue the pocket to the pop up piece. when the card is opened the gift card raises to greet the recipient! How fun!
