Hello friends! Today I am sharing a few gift cards that I created for Teacher Appreciation Week.  Now that my youngest is in High School, we give his teachers gift cards to Starbucks. Today, Lawn Fawn is releasing Ahoy, Matey stamp set, Simple Gift Card Slot dies & Lift The Flap dies.  I was able to use all three items to create these gift card holders.  The Lift The Flap die set, is a set of three dies, that creates a flap in any project you create.  The Gift Card Slot dies, keeps you gc in place.

So, when I saw this stamp set from Lawn Fawn, and then saw the teacher gift cards at Starbucks, the gears started churning in my noggin for a cute gift card idea.
