I'm going to a neighbor's birthday party this afternoon. I was totally at a loss as to what to get him. I called his wife and she said he liked a certain brand of mini cigar and that they come in 5 packs. Well, it looked like such a tiny gift that it needed more than standard wrapping paper. So I decided to make a pouch to hold them.
I just loosely wrapped cardstock around the package and the creased the edges to make the basic pouch. I cut off all around but the middle portion on the top (so that became my flap). Then decorated as shown.
Hope he likes it and that it doesn't seem too cheap! Hopefully my decorations make it seem more extravagant!

This is such a great card/gift holder. The checkered ribbon is such a perfect addition to a sports car themed project. Levi tab and stitching are perfect accents.
