I have created this really easy but cute Christmas gift wallet using Helmar products and Pink Paislee papers.
You will need:
1 piece of white cardstock cut to 10.75 x 8 inches
Christmas patterned papers
Scallop circle punch
Matching ribbon
Helmar adhesive runner, fabric glue and zap dots
Step 1 - Score your cardstock on the longer side at 3.5inches and 8inches. Fold up the bottom section to create a 'wallet' and adhere the two side edges using Helmar adhesive runner.
Step 2 - Cut a piece of patterned paper to 7.5 x 3.25. Adhere this to the front bottom half of your wallet using Helmar adhesive runner.
Step 3 - Corner punch the 2 corners of the top flap of your wallet. Cut a piece of co-ordinating patterned paper to 7.5 inches x 2.5 inches and corner punch the 2 matching corners, then adhere to the flap using Helmar adhesive runner.
Step 4 - Cut your ribbon to and adhere to the center of the top flap using Helmar fabric glue.
Step 5 - Cut out your sentiment, then punch a scallop circle out of white cardstock. Adhere your sentiment to the scallop circle using a Helmar Zap Dot. Adhere this to the bottom section of your wallet using Helmar clear zap dot, so that the top flap slides under it to keep it closed.
This Christmas wallet is perfect for cash or gift vouchers. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. Next person on the BLOG HOP list is BECKY and you will find her here - http://www.beckyteich.blogspot.com/
