Today's Blog Hop projects all feature the Scoreboard Notebook Pocket die, by Eileen Hull. I've created a Christmas-themed project to present a gift card. I love the Notebook Pocket because it's such a large pocket. I was able to fit a card large enough to hold the Pop-up Christmas Tree die inside. (The tree did have to be shortened to fit, though)
I'm presenting this project in both photos and a video so you can see the spring-loading in action!
Here are the photos of the project:
I thought this would be a fun idea for presenting a gift card for a special someone. Perhaps a Secret Santa exchange?

Thanks Amalia! I got those particular tension springs in a variety pack from Home Depot, but you can buy tension springs by the spring at Ace Hardware.
