Sew Useful Easy Fabric Card Holder

Make this nice and practical card holder in not time!
This card holder is made out of fabric and it's purpose is to hold your credit card, library card, driver's licence or even your business cards.
I love giving it as a little present with a gift card inside. Gift cards are very popular but I think that adding a nice, useful and handmade card holder makes the gift card even more special.
This sewing project is very simple and you can make it in a very short time. So get those scraps of fabric out and start your sewing machine!

Hey, you got it in the Etsy group! Right on. What's with all these pleasant shots by daylight? Don't you know that we all take shots at night with a flash 'round these parts? :)
