Makeover Magic: Handmade Gift Card Holder for Father’s Day
May 21, 2025
Some projects never go out of style and this Father’s Day gift card holder is one of those cards!
Originally shared over12 years ago (!!!), this design is getting a fresh look. I’ve recreated it using the Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper for rustic charm and added a Happy Father’s Day greeting from the Trusty Tools stamp set.
It’s the perfect little project when you want to give a gift card, but still keep it special and handmade. I’ve included the original video tutorial below, along with the measurements so you can craft right along with me.
This project is perfect for:
- Dads and grandpas who are hard to shop for
- Tucking in a restaurant or hardware store gift cards
- For the littles, DIY coupons for Dad to redeem
Lisa’s Inklings:
- Base is cut 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 and scored at 2 1/2 and 6 1/2.
- Patterned paper is cut 2 1/2 x 5 1/2 and 2 x 5 1/2.
- Very Vanilla CS is cut 5 1/4 x 1 3/4 and 1/2 x 2 3/4.
