Valentine's....it's the Love holiday right?  So naturally it's my holiday, right? Annette Love---the Love holiday, you get it.  I try to be creative each year and come up with something new.  So here is the 2017 creative offering - a fabulous coffee themed gift card holder:






These are really a cute gift card holder for anyone, but especially great if you need to make many of them for say teachers or co-workers because they are easy to assemble.  I gathered together all my supplies and got to work.



I found the coffee mug gift card holder die cut blanks at one of the scrapbook shows. I didn't have enough in the right colors so I just traced them onto some pink and red card stock and cut them out. I added some embellishments that I punched out of different sized hearts in a foiled Valentine's print.


You want to be careful when you fold the die cut in half and glue it shut to create the pocket for the gift card.  I slid the card inside where I wanted it to be so I could measure where I wanted to glue the coffee mug die cut on the three sides to make it the perfect sized pocket..


I added a cut little tag with a stamped image and sentiment that followed my Valentine coffee theme.


And then tied on the tag with a heart printed ribbon.  Thanks a latte for checking out my blog!
