Abstract
A gift card folder for securing a gift card is described. The gift card folder may be composed of a single sheet of substantially rectangular stationary which has a plurality of creases dividing the single sheet of stationary into panels of which two panels cooperate together to form a pop-up shelf upon manipulation of the gift card folder. A portion of the pop-up shelf comprises one or more slits to secure the gift card in a fixed position during opening or closing of the gift card folder. Further, the gift card folder may optionally include a flap that cooperates with an outer panel to secure the gift card folder in a closed position which compresses the pop-up shelf. When the recipient opens the folder, the gift card folder projects the pop-up shelf outward and towards the recipient of the gift card.
