Masculine Tri-Fold Gift Card Holder

This tri-fold gift card holder uses just 1/2 of a piece
of card stock!  You get a two-fer!
 
Cut an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock in
half longways so it measures 4 1/4" X 11".
 
Score at 2 1/2" and 6 3/4".  Fold on the score
at 2 1/2" and punch a 2 1/2" circle on the right
side of the card.
 

 
Now when you open it, you have a complete
circle.  
 
Fold at the 6 3/4" score line and you can
embellish that flap with whatever
fits the occasion so it will show through
the punched circle.
 
Also add a little something to tuck the
small flap under so it will stay closed, like
I did with the "Party This Way" arrow.
 



On the inside, add a 1 1/2" piece of card stock
to form a pocket for your gift card and add
a white piece of card stock for you to write on.

    1. Thank you, Anne-Marie! I'm sure you will find it really easy and think of lots of different ways to use it. I can't wait to try it out for Christmas gift cards and use a little tree or an ornament in the punched circle! ***sigh***
