Gift Card Tutorial – La-La Land Crafts

Tutorial Thursday – Gift Card Holder

Hello crafty friends! It’s Tutorial Thursday and I’m sharing how I made these adorable Christmas Gift Card Boxes using the new suitcase die cut.







You will need 

Hippo Holiday Stamp set
Many Dots Layering Stencil
Hearts and Harlequin layering stencils
Pierced Scallop Circles Die
Pinecone Bough Die
Heart Wreath Die

Glue
Foam Tape
Glitter Glue
Glitter pen
Glossy Accents
Coloured/white cardstock
Nuvo Drops
Distress Oxide Ink
Twine

I started by stenciling on Neenah white cardstock the So Many Dots Stencil with Distress Oxide Ink in the colour festive berries.  I then ran it through my Gemini with the new suitcase die cut.  I cut an additional suitcase out of white card stock 

(You will need 2 suitcase cutouts to complete the box, One for the top, one for the bottom)


At opposite ends I taped down the stitched semi circle and ran through the die cutting machine to create the tabbed openings.




I then assembled both the upper and lower box by following the score lines and applying liquid glue to the corners.




I then used both colored and white cardstock and cut the side and top labels out then glued down to the box





After the box and side labels are attached down I die cut the corners and glued down to the top 4 sides.



 I did some additional die cutting using the Heart Wreath Die, Pinecone Bough Die, Pierced Scallop Circles Die and

I stamped the sentiment in Versamark black ink and heat embossed in clear.  Using a piece of foam tape I attached the sentiment to the box.
I then began the fun of layering and completing these cute gift boxes.





From bottom up I stacked the Pinecone Bough Die, Pierced Scallop Circle Dies, twine then finished with the Hippo Holiday clear stamps and on the left of the box the small Heart Wreath Die


I used a Spectrum Noir clear glitter pen to add some sparkle to the heart wreath die and the pierced scallop circle die and for the hippos hats I added some glitter glue, I finished off the boxes by adding some glossy accents to the candy cane and the ornament and a few drops of red Nuvo drops.


Copic Colours

Hat/Candy Cane/Ornament – R89,46
Scarf – R21,20,000
