For those of you who may still be thinking about what you're going to send to your customers and coworkers this holiday season, this week we offer you a creative and simple solution. It's an Asymmetrical Accordion gift card holder from our friends at Sappi Fine Paper.
By adjusting the lengths of the accordion panels, you can make a very simple gift card holder that shows beautifully and presents the card in a special way. Add a finishing touch like a spot gloss UV coating, and you have a holiday gift to remember!
