Simple Layered and Embossed Gift Card Holder
I think this card looks great – it has everything my mom wouldn’t like! (haha – just kidding, Mom)
Unconventional holiday colors, a lot of mattes, and embossing done on sparkly paper – this little guy packs a punch!
I stacked all my layers on a Memories and More Card Pack (note card sized)- do you have these? They make whipping up a card a snap!

I used the Mini Pocket Envelope dies to make a gift card holder to pop on the inside!
To make this project, you’ll need the following supplies:
- Cardstock/Paper: Memories & More Card Pack, Basic Black (3 ¼” x 4 ¾”), Sweet Sorbet ( 3” x 4 ½”), Basic White (2 ¾” x 4 ¼”), 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer Paper (2 ¾” x 4”), 2022-2024 In Color DSP
- Inks: None
- Basic Tools: Snips, Trimmer, Adhesives (Glue, Glue Dots)
- Additional Tools/Supplies: Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Whimsical Woodland Embossing Folder
- Stamps/Dies: Mini Pocket Envelope Dies
To make this project, follow these steps:
- Layer cardstock on top of the front of notecard -largest to smallest (emboss glimmer paper with embossing folder)
- Cut out a mini pocket envelope using the die
- Adhere to the inside of the notecard
Here is a quick video of putting the card together:
What do you think? I love it’s simplicity but that sparkle does something, right? What color would you choose as your focus?
