We had so much fun on my Facebook live yesterday! Thank you to everyone who has been joining me live on Friday mornings (11am Pacific Time) for the past year+. It’s been a blast and yesterday we made this pretty fold out Gift Card Holder featuring the Hand-Penned suite!! That’s a sneak peek from the new 2021-2022 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog debuting on May 4, 2021!!!
Be sure to WATCH the Video at the bottom of this post for all the details and fun tips!
Since the finished gift card holder is somewhat thick, I thought it would be fun to put it into this Ombre Gift Bag instead of just an envelope! During the live video I had some great suggestions, this design could be used for Mother’s Day, Graduation, Weddings, Christmas, or birthdays! I originally did it for Christmas – see it HERE.
The Ombre Gift Bag and gift card holder feature products from the brand new Hand-Penned suite, specifically the Memories & More card pack! All these beautiful new goodies are available starting May 4, 2021. And don’t miss that gorgeous Highland Heather ribbon shown above!! oh my!
Above: Hand-Penned gift card holder shown top view. You can see how it folds out.
Below: Open: with pocket for gift card in the center panel and space to write a greeting on the right panel.
Dimensions for the card base, mat layer and fold out pieces. I did cut the 4×6 Memories & More card down to 5-1/4″ to fit on the 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ Pale Papaya card base. (see video below for the reason these are red 🙂
Below: Back side of the fold out portion showcases 2 more of the 3×4 Memories & More cards!
New Genial Gems are a great finishing touch to the project!
Don’t miss the gorgeous Scalloped Contours dies – I used them on the largest layer on the Ombre bag below.

Loved the video! Think I will propose it for my class on Wednesdays. it is really going well even though there are just 3 of us. The tips were great. I didn,t know about adding Alchol to wink of stella pens when they get dry.
So glad you enjoyed it.. thanks for commenting! If you want to see more info about adding alcohol to your Wink of Stella, watch this portion of last week’s live video: https://youtu.be/j7zXrcSkYII?t=1831
Hi Patty,
I just now got yo your blog night… I had a great day with my kids … I love your gift card holder.. Very pretty . I will watch your video tomorrow. I’m very tired .
Really like the card & I made it with the Hand Penned Memories and More card pack. Do you have any tricks to get it to stand up?
So glad you enjoyed it!! It’s such a great fold!! It’s not meat to stand up, so no, sorry, no tips on that for you.
