It’s time for a Fun-Fold Blog Hop with Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. We have eight projects to inspire you this month. Ready, Set…. Craft!

This fold was featured on my blog some time ago as a birthday gift-card holder. Today, I’m revisiting the project using pieces of the Christmas Ornaments Kit (#164378) for the focal piece. Click Here for the original post.
