Here is the inside that I added a pocket to hold the Gift Card Holder.  Super easy to do this to any card.  Cherry Cobbler Cardstock was cut 5 1/2″ x 2″.Gift card holder: Includes video tutorial by Sharon Armstrong with TxStampin.

Tear and Tape is a very strong adhesive that allows the Gift Card to stay where you want it.  Use a 1 3/4″ punch to create a notch that allows the recipient to pull out the gift card easily.
