Super Simple Christmas Gift Card Holder with Belly Band & Wonderful Snowflakes by Stampin' Up! Mary Fish, Stampin' PrettySIMPLY PRETTY!  I love that the gift card holder I shared previously (below) was so simple to create yet gives a little touch or personality!  I decided to create another, but this time I stepped it up a little by adding a belly band that can slide on and off.
