Hi there paper crafting friends!  It’s Michelle Starcher, aka the Bookish Designer, popping in on the blog to share some of the projects I have been working on for Christmas gift giving. There have been so many news stories about shipping delays and empty shelves in stores, I know a lot of us are looking at giving gift cards and cash for Christmas this year.  If you are looking for a way to add a personal touch to these gifts, Lori has the solution.  There are so many different options available in the shop when you are giving the gift of cash or a gift card.  Today I am sharing two that I made- one that holds a gift card and another that holds the gift of money.

When you aren’t sure what to give your niece or nephew for the holidays, I am pretty sure you will never go wrong with the gift of cash.  The Money Roll Gift Bag (SVG, Silhouette) is a great option to use if you want to give the gift of money in a creative way.  After all,  it’s all in the packaging! Tape some bills together and roll them up. Insert them into the box and stick one end of the roll out of the slit. Then, apply the tab to the exposed end of the “money roll.” There is a tutorial showing how easy it is to assemble here.

If you are looking for a fun, interactive way to present a gift card, I suggest the Pop Up Drawer (SVG, Silhouette).  For my project, I converted the Birthday Penguin file and used leftover stickers, papers, and journal cards from an older Christmas collection.  This interactive box features a drawer that when opened automatically “pops up” the card on top! This file is versatile you can give a small gift or candy in this box or use the included gift card holder to house a gift card, like I did.  Here is an easy tutorial.

If you are running out of time or just can’t find the perfect gift, you’re not alone.  Thankfully, Lori has so many amazing options in the shop that we can give the gift of cash or a gift card without feeling guilty about not giving a more personalized gift.  Let me know your favorite file in the comments below.

Until next time,

Michelle
