Floating Pop-Up Gift Cards Holder step by step

If you love coffee-themed crafts as much as I do, you’re going to adore this project! ☕🍫 Today, I’m sharing my newest creation — a floating pop-up card with a special pocket designed to hold a gift card. It’s perfect for birthdays, thank-yous, or just a cosy surprise for a coffee lover. Of course this type of card can be created in any style and you can use any collection. See another example below 🙂

This card features a floating pop-up element that reveals a beautiful coffee scene when opened. I’ve also included a gift card slot, perfect for a small treat, such as a coffee shop voucher.

The front panel is richly layered with coffee beans, star anise, chocolate bars, and a sweet message: “For You With Love.” Inside, the 3D coffee cup motif continues, floating in front of a warm, kraft-colored background with a “Be Happy” sentiment — and, of course, a Coffee gift card tucked neatly below.

I’ve recorded a short video tutorial showing exactly how this floating mechanism works and how to assemble each layer:

Don’t forget to tag me if you recreate it — I’d love to see your versions! ❤️

The second card was created the same way – and I recorded a video tutorial for you, but this one features a totally different collection, style and vibe!

I hope this will inspire you to create your own 🙂
