#6666

3D Grad Cap Gift Card Holder. The folded card opens to show a gift card inside. See next picture.

To get the smaller cut for the grad cap, start at the bottom edge of the opened (flat) die cut and measure 2 1/2" from the bottom edge all along the entire shape on EACH section. Mark with a pencil as you go and cut along that line to make the cone shorter. Follow the contour of the cone shape to get it correct. Cut the cap top piece at 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" and fold in half. Score the top section 1/8" in from the edge. The black "button" on the top is a plastic googlie eye from the craft dept. Colored it black with a sharpie.

Original idea was from HERE:
