Make two small holes on each side of the bag. Then run ribbon through and knot. Attach a tag. fold the sides in slightly to give it more of a gift bag look and you are done!

Step 2
Now take your paper and place it so the inside pattern is facing up and put the cricut box in the center of the paper. Take one side of the paper and pull it up over the box. Then take the other side and wrap it around, making sure to pull it tight. Make sure that you leave a little room on the bottom so you can fold it up. In other words don't make the cricut box bottom even with the bottom of the paper. Glue down the paper. I suggest you also glue down the top flap, where the lip is, it kind of sticks out otherwise. Pinch the sides together to make a sharper edge.
Step 1
Take your 6x12 piece of paper and fold it down an inch length wise. This is where the scoring blade comes in handy. Its quick and a lot straighter than doing it by hand. The folded flap will now show the inside pattern on the outside.
Mini Gift Bag Instructions
Supplies:
6x12 double sided cardstock
adhesive
Ribbon
Small Hole Punch
Tag
Cricut Cart Box
Scoring Blade (opitonal but I find its easier to use one)
When we put our bags together we used SUs terrifically tacky tape. I love this stuff, I am definitely going to be ordering some next time. A glue stick would probably work but if you have something stronger I would probably use that. When you are putting it together you have to pull the paper tight and you want something that will bond fast and strong.
3D Project
First of all I apologize for some of the really blurry pictures. I have had this camera several years and I am still clueless as to how it works! Okay on to the important stuff! Every SU monthly club meeting we always make 2 cards and one 3D item. This month we made a small gift bag with tag. This would be awesome for visiting teaching, neighbors etc. You could make a ton of these in no time at all.
Feb SU Club Cards
The eggs on th easter card are actually balloons we stamped on a piece of glossy paper then cut out minus the bottom triangle. On the butterfly card the grommets were attached with SUs crop-a-dile. I totally love this tool very easy and quick to use.
