Fun Fold Friday card is a Mini Gift Bag that is a Gift Card Holder. It only seemed fit that my last Fun Fold Friday is with the "Sweet Farewell" stamp set that will be retiring on May 2nd (next week). This set is GREAT for those who are graduating this year!
This Fun Fold could be used with any of Stampin' UP! 12 x 12 DSP and stamp sets however. There is even a way you can make it with 6 x 6 DSP as well.
For the front of the card I created a cute paper airplane background with the Soft Seafoam ink. Then stamped the suitcase in Memento Ink and colored it with Stampin' Blends. I fussy cut that out and added it to the front with dimensionals. I used the Tailored Made Tags for my Bon Voyage.
Once you open up the card you can see where the gift card could fit.
Open it all the way up and the mini bag comes to a full stand! This card is way easier then it looks. Be sure to watch my video below to get a better idea how it all comes together.

- Hold the bag together with out removing the Tear Tape and punch holes at the top for the twine handles. Have it go through both sides at the same time.
- Thread through 5 inches of twine to both sides. Put Tear Tape on the back of the DSP scrap and cover the ends of the twine. Do this for both sides.
