How to make a origami gift card holder
Start with a piece of pretty paper 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches.

Fold the paper in half.

Open the paper back up and then fold each side into the middle. It is really important that the edges meet perfectly in the middle.

Open the paper out flat and use the fold marks to fold each corn in.

Fold each side to the middle.

Find the middle by folding the paper in half.

Open paper back up.

Fold the end to the middle fold line that was just made.

Fold the other end up to the middle slightly tucking into the corners of the other end.

Insert gift card for such a pretty way to give a gift card.
