Christmas is coming up SO fast! Tomorrow is the last day of school before Christmas break! Last year I talked about giving my kids' teachers gift cards for Christmas. I made little tetrahedron boxes for a nice gift card presentation and posted a tutorial.

Well, a little while ago I discovered something similar, but cuter IMO - "Petal Pockets" from Create Studio. So this year I gave them a try for our teacher gift cards. I was going to have the kids design/color a pocket fold holder idea I also had, but there is just no time, considering my daughter has 2 teachers and my son has 4!! These two box ideas hold a card and chocolate or other little treat quite nicely and are pretty easy to throw together:![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKFpahUpy4W6gS0nDagjtxjX5kgyleJho4F_waG82LpEbdBMUTOIQisEPVlweDAgZoQ6TutVkp6sFKRM6yzJ5AQxf4uv5pagAYxjcRI_CtgV_YrD6FblkNMVBeVL-BqQWeQbeuxb6_2VM/s400/gift-card-pocket.jpg)

Basically, it's four curved sides, or three straight sides.

I used blue & brown snowflake patterns with narrow satin ribbon for my son, and red & pink with curly ribbon for my daughter. A little message tag attaches to the ribbon and we're ready for Christmas parties tomorrow!
