I started making these
for the Easter table with space for chocolate in the back pocket, then made
some with the Tea Party range. Need to think on Jubilee ones next!
1. You need a piece of 8x8” paper. For my Easter
bag I used the First Edition Spring Stack and for these Tea party bags I’ve cut
down the 12x12” double sided paper to size.
2. Fold the 8x8” square in half diagonally.
3. Either on a score board or using a ruler score
along the diagonal edge.
I
used line 1 on my Eaziscore. For measuring and other boards score at 2cm.
4. Now along the diagonal edge measure in 10cm
from each point and score at right angles. I used line 5 on my Eaziscore board.
If using another brand of board find the line equal to or just less than 10cm. (PS - no I don't work upside sown, but for some reason Blogger is randomly altering my photos - who knows which way up the next one will be lol!)
5. Crease all score lines.
6. Open out Square and fold two points in as
shown. They will overlap slightly; they need to do this. (ah sideways working now lol)
7. With both side points folded in, fold the top
point down to the bottom one using the centre horizontal fold. So that the two
points meet together.
8. Now fold both points back up using the second
fold lines.
9. Punch a hole in the top so you can secure the
two open pockets with ribbon. If you want to ink the edges do this now before
you secure the ribbon.
10. Now decorate with Doilies and stickers from the
Tea party range. These will take little bars of chocolate: cover the outer wrapper in the papers to match in if you wish. They will also take gift cards and more.
Sorry everyone, hope the photos don't give you all too much neck ache. I have tried lots of remedies, photobuckets and goodness knows what else this afternoon, but the sun's out, there's a choc-ice in my freezer and I have admitted defeat with a smile.
