Elegant wedding gift wallet

Wedding season is fast approaching and what better way to gift something special to the happy couple than in a beautifully hand crafted gift wallet. This is so easy to make yet looks stunning. It can hold money, gift cards or a beautiful keepsake letter perhaps. The possibilities are endless. In addition you can simply change the decor to turn it quickly into a gift wallet for any occasion.

I used the stunning sweet soiree DSP which does have cakes on some sheets. I fussy cut a few out and sat and thought what I could make. This wallet was what popped out of my head. The stunning colours in the DSP match beautifully with the shimmer ribbon in the Sale-A-bration combo pack the colour here being Calypso coral. I decided to layer over this with the beautiful Very vanilla lace trim. This then makes a pretty soft custom trim yet the colour peeks through. Subtle yet colourful. The belly band then becomes a focal point.
You could add a sentiment of your choice, I used the Happy wishes set and chose " for you" it seems generic enough, yet the cake points towards a wedding. In all a super easy project for any level of crafter to try.

I do have a step by step Youtube tutorial for you to follow and measurements and products used are listed below. So grab a brew get comfy and enjoy the video.
