2. Cut the Stripe cardstock 9.8cm x 2cm and another piece 2.5cm x 2cm. Adhere the longest strip in the middle of the fold up flap and adhere the smaller strip on the top flap and make sure it lines up with the middle strip.

3. Cut another piece of the Stripe cardstock 10.2cm x 4cm. Only apply adhesive to three sides of the cardstock and stick inside the gift card holder. This will be the pocket for your gift card to go in.

4. Using the Marianne Large Bow die set, die cut the largest die out of Sea Blue cardstock , die cut the other pieces from the Maraschino cardstock.

5. Assemble the bow together and secure with double sided tape. Once assembled adhere to the middle of the top flap.

7. Die cut the smallest die from Labels Seventeen from the Maraschino cardstock.

8. Layer the labels on top of one another and adhere to the middle of the fold up flap.
