Hi Stampers. Have you seen the pretty Free As A Bird bundle?  It makes some beautiful cards.  Today’s card actually does double duty – it’s a card AND a gift card holder! How cool is that?

The image below shows how I cut the card base of my gift card holder.

For the inside pocket of my gift card holder, I used tear and tape adhesive.  Tear & Tape is great to use anytime you need a little extra hold.  I use it often on fancy fold cards and 3D items.

The cute little birdies are from the Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird stamp set.  I stamped them in Memento Black ink and colored in with the Stampin’ Blends.  After it was colored, I fussy cut it out with my paper snips. (This shows you why I love my Brother Scan N Cut – I’m not really good with the fussy cutting).

Do you see the cute little birdies on the inside?  They are from the Bird Ballad DSP.   Using the Brother Scan N Cut, I cut out an entire sheet of the birds from the Bird Ballad DSP – within minutes I had a whole pile of birds, already colored!
