If you love creating thoughtful handmade gifts, today’s Handmade Gift Ensemble Tutorial: Create Matching Cards and Gift Packaging is the perfect project for you. These kinds of coordinated projects are always so much fun to make and they are especially perfect for creating masculine cards for special occasions like Father’s Day, birthdays, and retirement celebrations.

Last night I released one of my bonus projects for my Suite of the Month class featuring the beautiful Nature Walk Designer Series Paper. This project combines one of my favorite handmade gift card holder tutorials with a coordinating handmade card and matching envelope for a complete gift ensemble anyone would love to receive.

This project makes the perfect Father’s Day gift, but it can easily be adapted for birthdays, retirement gifts, or any special occasion for the men in your life. The earthy patterns and masculine colors in the Nature Walk Designer Series Paper work beautifully for creating elegant yet rugged handmade cards and gift packaging.

The box itself is incredibly versatile. Inside you can tuck chocolates, candy, small gifts, cuff links, a tie, or even other small treats. There is also a dedicated spot for a gift card, making this one of those handmade gift card holder tutorials you will want to recreate again and again. Add a gift card for their favorite sporting goods store, golf course, restaurant, or hobby shop for a personalized touch.

One of the things I love most about creating coordinated gift ensembles is how professional and thoughtful they look while still being simple enough to recreate at home. By using matching designer paper throughout the project, your card, envelope, and gift packaging all come together beautifully.
