cut patterned paper smaller to leave an 1/8" border around
Cut a slit in the small folded piece in centre to allow gift card to slip in, and glue edges and bottom to hold it (so it doesn't all out)
You can also put a band around the holder to keep it closed (but since I have an image on the front I'm using velcro closure (which I have to dig out of my craft room, thank goodness there's still a couple of weeks before Christmas for me to find that)
