Christmas Gift Card Holder – Tutorial

This Christmas gift card holder is so easy you could probably sew it in your sleep. The only thing that would take some brainpower is juggling with the measurements, so the gift card actually fits in. So I’m sparing you that and giving you a free template to use – just so you don’t need to do that funny math stuff when cutting into your fabric.

Oh, and have I mentioned it’s a scrap buster? All you need is two pieces of 5 by 6″ in matching, preferably Christmas-themed prints. And same size scrap stiff interfacing. And a ribbon, if you will. But that’s all!

Now, if you prefer to sit back and relax while I show you the steps in a slideshow – all about cozy!

Supplies to make the Christmas gift card holder:

• one 6″ by 5″ piece of stiff interfacing (see interfacing recommendations below)
• half yard/metre of satin ribbon (optional)
• matching thread, sewing machine, scissors, iron
• the free template from the Homemade Holidays – Free Pattern Bundle – download it for free from my design shop HERE. (No coupon needed.)

Which interfacing should you use:

I used woven fusible interfacing that’s practically identical to the non-woven Decor Bond, but you can also use Pellon Deco Fuse, or Vilene S520. Having said that, let me add that especially if you’re just starting out on your sewing journey, fusible fleece will work totally fine, too! As you see, there are hardly any limitations as to the interfacing on this project.

And just in case you’re using home decor fabric for outer and lining, you can just opt for a thin layer of, say Pellon SF101 Shape Flex or Vilene G700 – or eliminate it altogether. Easy-peasy! But I digress. Back to the how-to:

If you want to, you can use the ribbon to tie around the gift card holder or hang it on the Christmas tree. Beautiful!

That’s all, folks! I hope you’ve enjoyed making this easy gift card holder, and I’m even more so hoping you’re having a pleasant, cozy holiday season.
