You may remember reading about my poinsettia gift card holder, which has proved to be very popular already! Well, now I am working on several other designs in this series, and I am super excited to share my second design featuring forget-me-nots!
Disguised as a vintage teapot, this stunning forget-me-not gift card holder is designed to hold a standard credit card sized gift card, and can also be used for home decor!
The template for this gift card holder comes as a single SVG cut file, and can be found in my Etsy shop.
To make one, you will need:
* Forget-Me-Not Teapot Gift Card Holder template (available as an SVG cut file)
* Computer and printer to print the PDF instructions
* Digital cutting machine
* Double-sided cardstock (220-250gsm / 80-92lb recommended)
* Small piece of vellum
* Craft glue
Watch my video tutorial showing how to assemble the gift card holder, and be sure to follow the tips below:
TIP 1 : When attaching the green leaf pieces, carefully line up the base so that it’s just up from the teapot base.
TIP 2 : Gently curl the blue forget-me-not petals upwards to give them added dimension. Then add the other three layers as shown here.
TIP 3 : When attaching the back piece, only apply glue to the top part (the lid and rim section).
TIP 4 : Fold the base tab in half and apply glue to the last part only so that it attaches to the base of the teapot piece.
Once assembled, your little forget-me-not teapot gift card holder is ready to go and, because it folds flat, it can easily be popped into an envelope for posting!
When opened up, it becomes freestanding, and will even rock, making it perfect for birthday cards, Mother’s day, teacher gifts or as a unique housewarming gift!
Happy crafting!
