So my project this week!!

I used the beautiful die that is part of this collection 

to create a gift bag with. As I made it I took photos of each step

so I also have a tutorial for you !! (It's a long post bear with me!! )

Here are some photo's of the finished bag first:

  

And a side view 

And here is how to make it!! 

You will need the following:

2 x white die cuts of the Decorative Oval Die

2 x die cuts Grand Oval dies

3 x pre printed strips from the Fuchsia paper pad

1 x 2 3/4" x 9" piece of paper for the body of the bag

1 x 12" x 1 1/4" piece of paper for the handle

Using the 2 3/4" x 9" paper score 1/2" either side along the long length.

Snip along each side of the paper.

Adhere one side of the paper to one of the pcal die cuts.

I used a glue that was repositionable so I had it in place 

properly before it dried. Its also easier to glue the snipped pieces than the oval.

Your project should now look like this.

Adhere the snipped side and place the second oval die cut on it

to form the body of the bag.

Take both Decorative Oval die cuts and put 3D foam on the back.

Adhere them to both sides of the bag.

Take the three stips and adhere then to handle piece of paper. 

Adhere the handle to the sides of the bag

It should now look like this!

All you need to do is decorate !!!
