Baking Spirits Bright: Gingerbread Man Gift Card Holder

Who doesn’t love a little handmade touch with their holiday gifts? This sweet gift card holder using the Gingerbread Man bundle is the perfect way to give a little something extra! I love how cheerful this color combo feels — Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, and Timid Tiger make such a fun twist on traditional Christmas colors.

The adorable gingerbread man is heat embossed in white on Early Espresso cardstock and dressed up with a Timid Tiger hat and scarf. The background is embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder for that cozy texture, and the black-and-white polka dot paper from the Modern Christmas DSP adds a touch of modern charm. Inside, there’s a handy little pocket — perfect for slipping in a gift card!

When making gift card holders, reinforce the pocket flap with strong adhesive like Tear + Tape to make sure it stays secure (especially if your card will be handled a lot). A little extra hold goes a long way!

The full supply list for this card can be found further down on this blog post. You can also see the video link and the class information below!
