I wanted to get as far away from Christmas cards as I could so decided to go for a clean and fresh gift card holder that would be suitable for a birthday or wedding.
I used an old gift card holder as my template, so I don't have a link for you, but there are plenty of them around in blogland if you are interested.
I stamped the vine stamp from Creative Elements onto the front using Pool Party ink.  A little heart punched out of silver glimmer paper finishes the base.  The belly band is also very simple - Whisper White with a layer of Pool Party DSP.  The greeting is from the Apothecary Accents framelits and I paper pierced an oval around the sentiment.  A couple of rhinestones finishes it off.
Thanks for looking.  Head on over to Create with Connie & Mary to see what the rest of the challenge team has come up with and give these colors a go.
Products used (all Stampin' Up!):
Stamps:  Creative Elements; Made for You
Cardstock:  Pool Party; Whisper White; Silver Glimmer Paper; 2011-13 In Color DSP
Ink:  Pool Party
Accessories:  Word Window Punch; 1 1/4" circle punch; small heart punch; Basic Rhinestones
Cheers
Karren

Love this idea!! The paper piercing really helps set off the greeting! So pretty!!
Super cute gift card holder that could easily be turned into a card. My favorite part is the oval paper piercing! Happy New Year!
This is the perfect wrapping for a gift card. It would be fantastic done up in any color for any occasion. Cute!
Very cute! I have several birthdays coming up in January, so I may borrow this idea.
