I told you yesterday that I would share the birthday card I made for my nephew. The idea came from this card that Debbie made, and I thought it would be fun to use money instead. What kid doesn’t like getting money for a birthday!? This was also my first time using washi tape. I recently picked some up and am having fun playing with it.
I put a piece of twine in the center of the money.
Then I rolled the money up as tight as I could, making sure I rolled all of them the same direction so the ‘5’ would show, and then used washi tape to secure them.
I used some fun string to wrap around the candles, after I stuck them to some scotch tape. 
My nephew was SO excited to get this card. He had those candles off and unwrapped in no time flat. I love when the recipient loves the gift as much as you hope they will.
I LOVE that card-so cute!!!!

Made this card yesterday for my young 20s nephew and he loved it!!!! He knows I try to give thoughtful gifts and with his age, cash is best – so this was a great way to give it to him. Thanks!!!!
Love this so much! I’m going to steal your idea but with a few tweaks for Christmas. My “impossible to buy for” grandson always prefers money so I’m always looking for clever ways to gift it. Thanks so much for sharing!
That sounds like such a fun gift! I hope he loves it!
What a fun card! I love this idea!! I may be using this sometime in the future! Thanks for the tutorial!
It is a fun one, that always seems to be well received! 🙂
That is so pretty. I will make one for my niece.
