It seems like I’m always on the lookout for different ways of presenting gift cards. Today I have a simple idea for you using our Large Terrarium die!
These were simple to put together, and turned out so cute. It helps to start with a gorgeous gift card – I found these when I was picking up a bunch of gift cards at Target the other day and I knew they were just perfect for what I had in mind. (everyone else must like them too – I had to hit up several check-outs to find enough! 🙂 )
I started out with a solid terrarium diecut, and I stamped some blooms from the Fleur Impressions set using ink colors to match the flowers on the gift card. I left an open space in the center of the flowers where I could write a message. The gift card will cover it, making for a really nice presentation.
To attach the gift card, I used a handy little punch I’ve had in my tool collection for years. It’s a slit punch, which I believe is from Stampin’ Up — I got mine years ago, so I have no idea if they still carry it, but it is handy for sure! It punches half-circle tabs, perfect for things like gift cards.
To turn it into a standing card, I simply attached a detailed terrarium diecut by gluing it to the solid one, just by the top ring. Since the Larger Terrarium dies are approximately the size of an A2 card, I simply tucked them into an envelope, and they were ready to mail to some very special people!
I put together just a real quick video of the assembly, for those of you who like to have a visual! 🙂 Enjoy!

I had to look twice, I thought it was a new flower set from you. I think Target is going to sell out of that gift card design! Beautiful!!
I love this idea! That’s some serious camouflage, Betsy!!
Hi Betsy! Wow, what a GORGEOUS way to send a gift card. I don’t think I’ve seen a more beautiful presentation. I echo other crafters, when they say, I’m so excited I purchased the terrarium dies during your release. Thank you so much for your continued inspiration. And I have to add again, I LOVE YOUR WEBSITE!! 🙂

Brilliant idea for such a pretty floral gift card. I’ll have to be on the lookout for other floral designed gift cards.
What a great idea to coordinate your color scheme to the gift card. These are just adorable!

THOSE LUCKY RECIPIENTS, BETSY, ARE SURE TO BE DELIGHTED. LOVE HOW TARGET GOT THEIR FLORAL COLOR SCHEME FROM YOUR NEW FLORAL STAMP SET! 😉 VERY CLEVER GIFT CARD HOLDERS!” (Sorry, didn’t mean for it to be in caps.)
Fab idea! So quick and easy as this video shows. This die set is on my wish list. Hope to have it soon. tfs
These are so pretty! Love the terrarium die!
What am I missing here? How did you cut the solid piece of the Terrarium dies?
Hi Kathy – snip out the inner piece of the die so you can cut the solid and details separately, if that makes sense!
