Hello,
I'm here today with a quick and easy little tutorial for you sharing a cute way to use your envelope liners dies (did you buy these thinking "Fab!" and have never used them for envelopes? Yup, me too!), which you can team with any DSP to make these cute Money Wallets for gifting cash (or other small items, of course).
As you can see the tutorial shows Christmas DSP as I originally made these at Christmas and I took the photos while I was making them, but as you can see below they work in any DSP, and could be used for gifting at any occasion! They are perfect for gifting money in a way that is just a step up from simply popping it in a card :-)
So, lets start with the finished Money Wallet made using Birthday Bouquet DSP...
I used the cute ice-cream cones pattern and the sentiment is from the Birthday Blooms stamp set.
OK, so to make them all you need is the Envelope Liner Dies and Designer Series Paper of your choosing.
I cut the DSP to 23cm (9") x 8.5cm (3+3/8")Fold in half at 11.5cm (4.5")
Then die cut ensuring you do not cut the crease (see photo)
After cutting, unfolded, it should look like this...
Make sure that the pattern will be the correct way up and fold one end over to make the flap which will be at the front of the wallet.
Flip over and add tape down both sides along the square body only
Secure the flap down with a glue dot if desired and add a ribbon bow to finish.
Tah Dah! A quick, easy and cute way to gift money!
and the Birthday design again to finish today :-)
Thanks for looking today, here's this months order code for an extra freebie from me in February.
Decembers gifts are going in the post tomorrow and if you'd like me to send you a spring/summer catalogue then please drop me a line and I'll post it on whilst I'm out :-)
Thanks for looking!
