Today I have a Mini Gift Card Clutch and W-V Fold Card featuring the Frames & Flowers Designer Series Paper! The Mini Gift Card clutch is a resized version of one I created years ago and I had so much fun creating the W-V Fold and figuring out the paper dimensions!

The colors in the Frames & Flowers Designer Series Paper are just beautiful together! I couldn’t wait to create projects with it. Let’s get to it!
Mini Gift Card Clutch
This Mini Gift Card Clutch is a resized version of this project I shared back in 2020! I sized this version to fit a gift card perfectly and what a cute way to give one to someone!
I’ve added a VELCRO closure to this clutch, but you could use magnets too! Here are a couple more views of the outside:
And here’s how the clutch opens:
This would be a great project for giving gift cards for birthdays or Christmas!
