Say Thanks!

We’re sharing three different designs for you to choose from; You Rock, Just A Little Something, and Thank You. Of the three, one is guaranteed to perfectly fit the sentiment for its recipient. Complete with a little to: and from: on the backside!

SUPPLIES:

• Cricut Maker or Cricut Explore
• 8.5″ x 11″ Matte Photo Paper
• Home Printer
• Glue Dots
• Our FREE png. files at the end of the post!

Upload To Design Space

At the end of the post, click on the graphic to download your choice of gift card sleeve design. Open Design Space and click to choose to upload a file. Locate the file, choose complex file, click continue on the next page and finally click to save the design as a print then cut image.

Size To 5″ Wide

Drag the file down to exactly 5″ wide as show on the coordinates.

Add Score Lines

While you don’t have to do this step, doing it makes the folding of these sleeves SO much easier. Click to add a shape and choose score line; add 3 lines, one on each side and one across the bottom.

Attach

Select the file and all three cut lines and hit attach. This tells the Cricut that the score lines are now “attached” to that exact spot on the design file.

Print

If you’ve never used the print then cut feature of the Cricut, it can seem a bit intimidating but I assure you it isn’t! After you’ve attached the score lines you are ready to make the project. When using a print then cut file, Design Space automatically prompts you to print the file on your home printer and then place that print on the cutting mat. Click print. I’m using my Canon TS9020 and the Canon Matte Photo paper so I chose to print on those settings with the highest quality.

Add The Scoring Blade

Cut

Place the printed design onto a cutting mat and load into the Cricut Maker. Then watch the blade housing slowly read the black square registration mark with it’s bright light… and then score and cut the file! The black registration box tells the Cricut exactly where to cut on the printed design, it’s amazing.

Fold On The Three Score Lines

Add Glue Dots To The Folded Flaps And Adhere

The Extra Touch

Even if it’s just a $5 coffee card, a little gift like this goes a long way because of its ultra sweet packaging. All you needs is a few pennies and a few minutes to whip out a few of these sleeves and say thanks in true DIY bride style!
