Little Treat Bag

Here's my video tutorial that goes with this blog post.  Please click here to see the video

I can't take any credit for this project.  I saw it on YouTube and it comes from a crafter called Kim Price.  Thank you Kim for sharing this.

You'll need a sheet of DSP or cardstock that measures 6" x 6".  Score one side at 1 3/8" and turn your paper 90 degrees clockwise.  Score at 1 3/8" but only to the scoreline.  Score again at 2 3/4" all the way down the paper; score again at 4 1/8" but again only to the first score line and then score one last time at 5 1/2" all the way down.

Cut away the small rectangle at the bottom of the gift box and then fold and burnish all of the scorelines.

Cut up the short scorelines but only up to the horizontal line.

Put some adhesive tape on the right side of the tab and some on the second flap from the end.  The video tutorial illustrates this.

Cut out two circles - one 2 1/4" and the other 2".  Stamp your greeting/sentiment on the smaller circle and then stick the smaller circle onto the bigger circle.  You can then stick both circles to the gift bag.

Before creating the base, punch a hole into the top of the bag.

Create the base by folding in the two side flaps, the back flap and finally fold down the flap with the adhesive.

Thread some twine/ribbon through the hole in the top and there is your finished bag ready to fill with treats.

Here are the links to the supplies and I hope you like this project.  When you place an order, please don't forget to quote the hostess code (you'll find this at the top of my blog).  If orders are big enough, there may be some rewards to share out among my customers.
