~ now for the tutorial you have been waiting for ~ 

I began by cutting one Gift Card Envelope and 2 tabs with white cardstock.

Next I used some double sided tape on the tabs.

Once I had the adhesive on the tabs I adhered to both ends of the inside of the envelope.

Next I cut 2 a piece of black cardstock at 3 1/2" x 2 1/4" and a piece of pattern paper from the Starry Night Paper Pack at 1 1/4" x 2".

I adhered the layers together and adhered to the front of the envelope.  

Next I cut 2 of each of the trees that are part of the Snow Globe Die Set and added to each end of the ennvelope.

Then it was time to add my Hippo just off to the left of the envelope.

Now to complete the back of the envelope.   I added double sided tape as shown below.

In was then able to adhere the edges together.    I cut one of the wax seals and the tree overlay, both with black cardstock.  I adhered to the flap with a bit of wet glue.

Now for the back of the cardholder, I added a crystal to the top of the tree.   

And for the finished product front - I added some crystals to the front as well as I felt it needed a bit of bling.   I love how this turned out and as you can see many can be made fast and easy.
