Dis~tructions for Give aways

I have had some tummy trouble the last couple days . . . don't know what's up with that. I'm sure I will bounce back. . . I always do!

So instead of scrapbooking I decided to make little give aways, both for my customers (Who are at this moment planning what they want to buy from me! HINT HINT) and for people who come into my store.


Well here they are . . .
I made up the little envelope (out of double sided paper, from my scrap-bin). This is a great little project that helps you get rid of some of your scraps!! I love projects that do that!!

I probably made about 30 of them last night while I was sitting and watching tv.

They were really simple to make. Here are your "Dis-tructions"

Cut your desired paper to 2 1/2 inches x 6 inches. (I always make myself a pattern and then put tape on it to make it real sturdy~I'm a bit of a freak that way )

Make a 3 way fold with your middle section being big enough to hold your cotton pad. (I don't know if all cotton pads are the same size or not. )

Then you are going to notch out a little valley from the top of the middle section. I just cut it out, but you can do this with your deco scissors or your circle cutter . . . whatever you like or are feeling. You can make these as fancy or as simple as you like. Since I was planning on making a ton of them, I made mine very simple.

Either use double sided tape or your tape runner on to the bottom of the middle section. Then fold one side in and put tape on the flap of that so you can adhere the other side.

Put your sentiment on the front and then slide your stuff into the pocket you just made.


A quick and simple give away. (I'm going to slide my business cards in to them too~ when I finally get them. )

I hope you enjoyed our little project!
