We made gift bags and cards at class last night. This is a "one sheet wonder"... you get the bag, card and envelope from 1 sheet of 12x12 paper.
Cut
your 1 sheet at the 8 ¼ mark with the pattern is “facing north” so vertical on
the 8 ¼ when you sheet is cut 12 x 8 ¼ - see diagram, the arrow shows the
direction of your pattern and the line is at 8 ¼.
I used a sheet from Christmas Around the world.
Gift
bag
Score
at 4 ¼, 5 ¾, 10, 11 ½ on the long side.
On
the short side score at 1 and 7 (7 is at the bottom of the bag) see diagram to
the right. Fold on the score lines (making a cuff for the
top). Remove 2
squares that are at the top and bottom edge of the bag that are 1 1/4 x 1/2 and 1 x 1/2.
Cut the tabs: cut up 1 ¼ “ from the bottom. Notch the tabs. Make sure the cuff is folded over and adhere the bag together. You’ll need to glue down the 2 corners of your cuff, I used liquid glue.
Punch 4 1/8” holes in the top. Add 9” ribbon to each side of the bag. If you put something heavy inside add a piece cardboard at the bottom to reinforce it.
