Welcome to our December Team Blog Hop.
I am going to share a cute Treat Bag with a fold over flap. There are so many ways to make bags, but I found this one to be a bit different with the flap. It is a great size too 3 x 4 x 2. The bag does narrow at the top but you can easily fit a gift card, chocolates like Hershey kisses and a bit of paper shred for some fun. What a great little treat bag.
I am featuring the super cute Beary Christmas suite collection.
I used Boho Blue card stock for the base of the bag
Cutting and Scoring:
- card stock is 8 x 10-1/2
- on the long side, score at 3", 5", 8" and 10"
- on the short side, score at 2" on each side
- Designer Series Paper Pieces are:
- 2 pieces at 2-3/4 x 3-3/4
- 1 piece for the flap at 1-3/4 x 2-3/4
Using the Very Best Trio punch, round the corners of what will be the flap and the 1-3/4 x 2-3/4 DSP. Here is what you card stock should look like after you have cut and scored. The left side will be the bottom of your bag. You can slightly angle in your bottom cuts.
Here is a little side angle. See how I pinched the sides to close the bag? Then fold over the flap to close, then wrap linen thread around several times to close.
I used the Memories & More card pack along with the 2" Circle Punch to create a little tag.
