CARD BOX DIE CUT - 800

NAPKIN WRAP BOX - 800

NAPKIN WRAP BOX 1  - 800

I have introduced you earlier to artist/designer Eileen Hull the creator of the new Scoreboard from Sizzix. She has organized another Blog Hop for today and she  has invited me again to participate.  I am so honored! Today we are all featuring the Sizzix ScoreBoards XL Die – Notebook Pocket die from Eilleen’s ScoreBoards collection.

As I mentioned on my prior post on die cuts, I have been working on my gift wraps…This time I designed a pocket-purse to keep beautiful napkins. I used to collect them as a child and had tons of them! One of my friend’s daughters seems very interested in starting a collection herself. Her birthday is coming up soon and I decided to inspire her even more with a cute present!

This is a super easy and fast project to make.

MATERIALS:

Sizzix ScoreBoards XL Die – Notebook Pocket

Wired ribbon

Decorative Paper – Gift Wrapping Paper

Paper Flower

Festive Metallic Garland

Glue Stick

Glue gun

Glue sticks

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Lay the Sizzix ScoreBoards XL Die – Notebook Pocket flat on a surface.
  2. Add glue to the Die Cut using your glue stick and cover it.
  3. Glue decorative paper to it making sure it adheres evenly.
  4. Place some weights such as scrapbooking blocks or books on it and let dry for a few hours.
  5. Hot glue and put together your  Sizzix ScoreBoards XL Die – Notebook Pocket.
  6. It will look like a very pretty empty pocket!
  7. Decorate and hot glue the wired ribbon all around the edges using your glue gun.
  8. Measure and cut a piece of your festive metallic garland.
  9. Hot glue it to the inside of your pocket using your glue gun.
  10. Hot glue a piece of ribbon and a paper flower to the front.
  11. Add some nicely folded napkins {mine on the photos above are French}.

Doesn’t this purse/pocket look lovely?

USE IDEAS: Party Favors, Small gifts, etc.
