Gift Card Money Wallet
I generally hate giving cash or gift cards as presents, but this year I just couldn't decide what to give my brother for Christmas and eventually time ran out. So, not wanting to just shove some cash in a card, I decided that I'd make a wallet (so at least it looks likes some thought and effort has gone into his gift).
I followed this tutorial, but have used faux stitching as I didn't have time to get the sewing machine out and set it up. I'll definately be making more of these for giving cash or gift cards as it was really easy.
Thanks for stopping by.
