DIY Coffee Gift Card Holder With Cricut: Free Gift Card Holder SVG Files

Gift cards tally into the millions each year during the holidays. Gift cards are popular because you can give a gift without worrying about your recipient’s taste, size, or other personal preferences. But giving gift cards can also feel a little impersonal. As a Cricut crafter, I always look for a way to add custom and personal details to any gift. In this tutorial, I will teach you how to make an easy DIY gift card holder, which is the perfect way to add a handmade touch to any cash gift.

This gift card holder designs feature a coffee cup and latte with whip cream on top. These designs can be made in other colors to reflect more than just the Fall and Christmas seasons. I’ll be using my Cricut machine in this tutorial, and you can download both of my gift card holder templates below for free!

DIY Gift Card Holder Picture Tutorial

First, download the free gift card holders above in the AKC Freebie Vault. Once saved, navigate to Cricut Design Space to upload the SVG cut file. Learn how to upload SVG files here. Choose your cardstock colors and load each corresponding color onto your Cricut mat as prompted. I used the glitter cardstock setting and medium cardstock setting in Design Space.

Once all the gift card template pieces have been cut out, layer the top details with glue. I like to use Bearly Art glue.

To create the pocket for the gift card to slide in an out of, add the 3D foam strip tape around the bottom and sides. Use a weeding tool to pull off the back of the tape.

Line up the top and base piece, pressing firming so the tape grabs. Add your gift card to the remaining whip cream cut-out and slide it into the gift card holder. That’s it! Both the latte cup and coffee mug holder are created the same way!

Before you cut out your layers, you can always mirror the bottom piece in Design Space and have Cricut write a personal message on the back for your recipient! See how I set things up in Cricut Design Space to write on my gift card holders.
