Gift Bags

 I love being able to make my own gifts and sharing them with others and making accessories is no exception.  Today we will focus on making a gift bag.  The following bag was inspired by Jill Olsen, an assistant at Stampin' Up!  View the video of how this is made and create your own.  Have fun!


Here's what you will need:

(2) pieces of 12” x 12” DSP

Score at 3”, 9”, turn the paper a ¼ to the left and score 1-1/2” and 9.”

The 1-1/2" will be the top of your bag.  Snip the bottom score lines to the next scoreline on each piece of paper.

On one piece only, also cut from the side in to meet the next scoreline. You will then have two side flaps at the top.

Fold on all the score lines.  Glue the bottom pieces together to make the bottom of your bag.

The piece that does not have the flaps fits inside the piece that does have the flaps.  Glue the bottoms together.

Glue the sides together.  You will tuck the flaps underneath the outside bag.

Glue the outside of the flaps before tucking them in

Use a wide ribbon as your carrier, punching holes on each side of the bag.
