DIY: Printable
Gift-Card Holders

These printable gift-card envelopes are the perfect way to say thank you to all our hard-working teachers.

Gift-Card Envelope

Now that the end of the school year is in sight, it’s time to start thinking about ways to thank your children’s teachers. Last year, I asked my kid’s teachers what types of gifts they appreciate most and the answer was unanimous—gift cards (yep, no more mugs, notepads, and personalized desk accessories, please). I know, gift cards can be so impersonal. But we took care of that problem by designing this mod-inspired gift-card holder to add a personal touch to your thank you card.

SUPPLIES

STEP ONE

Print the gift-card envelope templates and cut them out.

STEP TWO

With the envelope template face-down, fold one of the smaller semi-circle–shaped flaps up.

STEP THREE

Next, fold the other smaller semi-circle–shaped flap up.

STEP FOUR

Fold the larger flap up.

STEP FIVE

Using glue dots (or a glue stick), affix the larger flap to the smaller flaps, creating a little pocket.

STEP SIX

Fold up the other larger flap to make the envelope closure.

STEP SEVEN

Insert gift card of choice.

STEP EIGHT

Use decorative washi tape to seal envelope closed.
