Baby Gift Card Holder Set

Gift cards (the size of a credit card) make very easy, and yet well-appreciated, gifts for Mommy-To-Be. Gift cards, in any dollar amount, mean that Mommy (and Daddy) can shop for what they really want...rather than what you think they might like. You can make certificates or an actual quarter-fold card. You get everything you need in the collection, including a free printable envelope that is suitable for quarter-fold cards.

Give the gift card by attaching it to one of these Baby Shower Gift Card Holders. These three examples all print on 8-1/2 x 11" paper, and fit into regular (#10) business envelopes.

As you can see here, I've printed them on different colored card stock paper (which is a little heavier than regular computer paper) and show different colored envelopes. You can buy both the card stock and colored envelopes at stores like Office Depot. However, you can also use plain white computer paper and white envelopes.

The Long Gift Card Holder, Step 1

This is the Baby Gift Card Long certificate. It will print on a piece of computer paper, or card stock. Then trim it to size to fit into a regular (#10) business envelope.

 

The Long Gift Card Holder, Step 2

When you print the long certificate, check the box that says Choose Paper Source By PDF Page Size. The dimensions will change to 4.13 x 9.5. This will insure that when you trim the certificate it will fit in a #10 envelope.

The Wide Gift Card Holder, Step 1

This is the wide gift card holder.

Since all computer settings are somewhat different, you may have to trim off one side (if the certificate border doesn't print evenly).

Fold the sides in toward the middle so that it fits into a regular (#10) business envelope.

The Tall Gift Card Holder, Step 1

This is the tall gift card holder.

Since all computer settings are somewhat different, you may have to trim off the bottom edge (if the certificate border doesn't print evenly).

Fold the top and bottom in toward the middle so that it fits into a regular (#10) business envelope.

 

The Quarter-Fold Gift Card Holder, Step 1

The quarter-fold card comes with an "envelope" that also prints on a piece of 8-1/2 x 11" computer paper.

 

The Quarter-Fold Gift Card Holder, Step 2

Fold the quarter-fold card in half, and then in half again.

Fold the envelope following the numbered lines. Glue the edges together, leaving a 1/2" flap at the top.

The Quarter-Fold Gift Card Holder, Step 3

Attach the gift card to the inside of the card.

You can use these gift card holders for your gift-giving, or use them as examples of how you can make your own!
