Money Wallet


Make a money wallet to give your gift of money in!
As promised on my Facebook Live over at Heartfelt Creations here are 
all the measurements and instructions to make this money wallet.
You can rewatch this video too where I make this HERE


Here is what it looks like inside, the middle panel
is perfect for writing your message on!

To make the wallet follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Cut a piece of card 11 1/4" x 6 3/4" long and score at 3 3/4" and 7 3/4".

Step 2: On the shorter section place the border die and die cut to form 
your opening flap. Fold along all the score lines.

Step 3: Cut the following pieces from the paper pad for the outer of the money wallet.
1 x 6 3/4" x 2" piece for the top
1 x 6 3/4" x 4" piece for the back centre
1 x 6 3/4" x  3 3/4" piece for the front lower section.

Fussy cut the chair and the bird house from a journaling piece from the paper pad.

Step 4: Cut the following pieces from the paper pad for the inner of the money wallet.
1 x 6 3/4" x 2" piece for the top
1 x 6 3/4" x 4" piece for the back centre
1 x 6 3/4" x  3 3/4" piece for the front lower section.
1 x 6 3/4" x 3 1/2" piece of white card
1 x 6 3/4" x 2" piece to go over the die cut white card for the pocket.
1 x Strip 6 3/4" long to go over the pocket.

Fussy cut the well from a journaling piece from the paper pad.

Step 5: Adhere the outer pieces of paper to the card and stamp the sentiments.

Step 6: Adhere the two fussy cut images to the wallet front and 
adhere pearls along the front flap.

Step 7: Adhere the pieces to the inner of the wallet and the fussy cut pieces
for the centre section.

Step 8: Die cut the white card for the pocket and adhere the paper
over the top and the strip over the top of that too. Glue the edges of this
piece to the bottom section of the wallet to make the pocket.

Step 9: Stamp, cut, colour and shape your flowers and butterfly
 and adhere them to the money wallet.

All you need to do now is decided how much your gift is and who it's for!
This fits USA dollars as well as UK pounds!

I made this with the Classic Petunia collection HERE

Have fun!
