Santa Pop Up Gift Card Holder

This is one of the fun pop-up gift card holders we made at a recent class. When you put a gift card in a fun holder, it becomes a memorable gift. The belt buckle was inspired by a cool scrapbook layout by Lyssa Zwolanek. The belt holds the card shut and makes the perfect accessory to the card. Both the Deco Labels Framelits and the Silver Glimmer Paper I used for this project are on SALE until December 2nd, 2013!!!!
