Ready to add some handmade magic to your holiday gift card holders, to make them extra special and prove you didn’t just buy a boring, store-bought envelope? Grab some colored cardstock, your die cutting machine, and let’s get crafting before the eggnog kicks in!

In this shaker tutorial complete with snowballs, I will show you how to use the all-inclusive Art Impressions and Simon Says Stamp Exclusive Snow Globe GCH set. It’s great on its own, too—like a solo artist, but better with the band. We are also using the coordinating Art Impressions Envelope Gift Card Holder die set to make a fancied-up (ridiculously impressive) Gift Card Holder. Who doesn’t love a snowman in a winter wonderland? (Seriously, who? We need names. 😉) Let’s do this and have some cardmaking fun!
