 Hi everybody it's Emma mixed up crowd thank you for watching my tutorial today I've got this really big 12 by 12 by 6 gift bag So I wanted to use the whole front of a 12 by 12 piece here So I've got this lovely piece with love on it And I just didn't want to cut into it and I wanted to make these lovely size gift bags You can see they are massive So it's a six inch inside six inch side here Sorry six inch base and then 12 inch in length and 12 inch in height And the whole thing folds completely flat So this is a shop brought size gift bag You can see there against my hands it's just huge And these are going to be so handy so I've made these for what I need So that's why they're the size that they are But you can adapt easily the width inside and your base as well But you want to keep the 12 by 12 So this is perfect if you've got maybe quite a lot of 12 by 12 papers that you may be not using You can really clash and use all different styles So I've got this on the front and then on the back It's all from the same paper pack which I show in a minute but I've got that Then on the side it's different again and on the base it's different So like I said you might have some lying around You might have some scrapbook pages Because this was one of the ones in the paper pack Which there isn't much you can do with Apart from maybe put it in a frame, scrapbook it Or keep it whole and do something like I'm doing But I just love it And again if you like to make everything and not buy it Then this is perfect because this is a really really large gift bag Finished it off with little eyelets there at the top And then I recycle my handles Which I buy when I'm doing my normal shopping So I've just put these through And again it just gives that really nice finished professional look as well And then I've got some tassels Using leftovers of the matching papers And then this was another tag from the pack Which I just put a little eyelet through Which you can just see there And then again that's ready now to just write my little message on And give to the person So I've got two of these so I'm going to be doing exactly the same again today So I just bring this one here Okay so I've cut everything down and prepared all of it This one I've done my tassels already I'll share the links to the tassel tutorials So you can revert to that But there's the two that I've done again using the leftover scraps So try not to have that much waste Because I'm aware that obviously a lot of card is used to make these Now you need two hinges I'll talk you through the sizes of that And then I've got my side panels are going to be This lovely foiled pattern And then my base is this one here So again all from the same pack That's another one of the cards Which I've just cut I've just rounded off the edges and popped an eyelet there And then there's the other one So that is it That's the whole 12 by 12 from the paper pack And it's just gorgeous And then that's going to be my back So I've just pulled out the detail from the behind the love there Which is this same design You can see all the foiled on it as well It's again stunning So this is the one It's a craft Smith paper pack It's from 2016 I got it on sale Again I'll look for any sale Any links that I can find for you But you can use obviously any paper packs you can But if you do have this one Or you can still get hold of craft Smith This particular one then brilliant But any good paper packs will have beautiful foil papers You know I love TrimCraft They have loads And then if you have any of these kind of Like scrapbooking pages like that That's where I cut my tags from Okay and these are what I use Just like journaling cards for your scrapbooking layouts And stuff like that So it's just another way to use it in gift bags And you know 3D box making It doesn't always have to be scrapbooking So that's the paper pack there Okay so you don't need to do anything with your 12 by 12 So you need to choose your 12 by 12 for your front And your 12 by 12 for your back So those are my 2 there Okay I don't need to do any scoring or nothing They are going to just stay as they are Then for your base You need a piece of 8 by 12 And along the 8 inch side You're going to score at 1 inch and 7 inches So all you're going to have is Just burnish over the edges there You're just going to have 2 1 inch Hit at kind of sides like that That's what you want to do just fold it up So again along the 8 inch side Score at 1 and 7 and burnish Then you're going to have 2 of your side pieces So choose what you want for your sides And again these are going to be 8 by 12 And this time what you want to do I've already prepared that one ready So along the 8 inch side You're going to again score at 1 and 7 inches And then you're going to flip On to the 12 inch side And you're going to score at 3 Then you're going to flip back again And you're going to score at 4 inches Down to that 3 inch score line That we just created Then once you've done that Get rid of your score board And then you will need your ruler Which is Grab my other metal one And all you want to do is From the bottom of this score line Here to that 3 inch score line You're just going to score To these 1 inch score lines On either side And this is just going to give us The And by doing those score lines It's now going to allow us To be able to fold the bag flat As you can see I've done on this one So once you've done this twice Because you'll need 2 pieces Just go and burnish All of those score lines And then fold this one in Like so And pinch it Just up to that 3 inch one And as you pinch it down You can see it kind of starts to come out Just Work in those other score lines Like so Ok, let's see how Just fold it like that In half to that one And then it will just start To kind of fall into place With all the others And then those will fold outwards Now I've got this 1 inch Double sided tape Which is the Scotch brand Just bring it up there Which I really love So I've just put A little 1 inch strip Along the sides there So I just need to do the same On this one here Ok, just always make sure Your double sided tape Is perfectly adhered To the paper Ok, so that's all nice and stuck down And then just with your scissors Just take a tiny bit Off of the ends Just a little wedge there Just off of all of them Just so you don't get Anything overhanging So you will have your two sides Ok, already like that Then with your base That was the other piece That was the 8 by 12 Sorry, I'm losing these ones here It's got them there You want to add that same Double sided tape or glue If you're using glue Then you'll do that in a minute Because I'll be showing you The step by steps To put it all together But double sided tape Down the two hinges here Of your base Ok, so it will be like so And then with The one back piece I said you didn't need to do any scoring But you do need to do one score line So let's just grab my score board If it's directional Make sure that you've got Your paper facing this Sorry, I mean This is directional So it doesn't matter Basically I'm going to score it Three inches That's now going to be The bottom So whatever pattern You've got You want to make sure it's facing this way And then you've got This three inch score line So pop it sideways So your print is facing this way Score at three inches And then when we turn it Because that now is What we're going to be doing To fold like so And then that will help The bag will fold flat that way Ok So now we can put it all together Ok So first of all You want your base And your front and back So get rid of your two side pieces So with your base I've already popped my tape on Everything's all nicely stuck down I'm just going to grab my Everything flying out at me In a minute Take my backing off And this is going to be My front one That I'm sticking down first Push that down flat And then with your piece of 12 by 12 I'm using my kind of Hand there to keep that Side down While I'm holding my card And then you just want to Make sure They should marry up perfectly So just get your End of your card Your top card And just make sure it's nice And in line with the bottom there And it will just completely marry up The other end there If you've got a little bit over Hanging like I have there I'm just going to turn it over And just snip That little wedge So just Get rid of any little bits there And you can see Ok So that is now the front And we've got the base coming together So turn it around And again Just burnish that down Just to keep it folded Over and more to that side Take off your backing And then with this piece Which is that piece that we've done The three inch score line Which is folded Again Exactly the same way Just holding that end down With the side of my hand And just start off From this corner Just making sure That it all follows nicely Along the bottom And again Just go over it Making sure That it's all nice and secure So now we've got Our front And our back And then that would fold flat Like so And this piece folds in That three inch score line Ok So you can see now It's a very It's a deconstructed gift bag So now we need to bring in Our side pieces here And also Our hinges Which I totally forgot to tell you about Let's get those ready as well So your hinges You need two pieces that are Two by One, two, three, four, five Two by six Ok, two by six And along the two inch side You're going to score it One inch down through the middle And then just fold it in half And that's going to create these hinges Now on the backside here I've again Popped this half This one inch double-sided tape On both sides there Of my hinge Ok So now With those hinges Open up your gift bag Start from one side here Take off one side of the backing And then again I would fold it in half And just line up The whole thing Like so Ok You can see now We've got that hinge on the side piece there So do the same Flip it over And do it now on this side Ok So you should have these two hinges On both sides With double-sided tape On this side as well Now ready to do our side panels So now Grab one of your side pieces And with the three inch score line And the triangle scoring That's the bottom We're going to stick this To this So also another little Trick and something that I've done Is if you When you're doing these bags that fold flat Some of your cup might not be so good It may be prone to cracking From the inside If you just run some cellotape Really neatly inside it No one's going to see this It's going to be inside But it would just mean That it gives your bag A bit more stability And a bit more longevity You know Especially if you're keeping it in storage Or you're opening it and closing it a lot By doing that It will keep those strong It's like putting in like a tie-vec Or something It's a non-rip fabric So it will just stop that tearing This card is very good But because it's foiled I wasn't sure if maybe over time With that pressure in that corner there So just a little trick there Just pop some cellotape On the insides Ok So now take off your backing here Again I'm going to fold this one over And you're basically ignoring the side tabs You're lining up this tab With the whole six inches of this pat in the paper Not this So don't stick it like that You want to stick it exactly in the middle So I'm just going to again Line this one up And just make sure it's all flush to the bottom Like so Ok This is very similar to the other big bags That I've made It's just we're having to add the hinges I've done 12 by 11 Or 12 by 10 I think in the past But I've never done a 12 by 12 in height Ok so And then Make sure that's all nicely stuck down Grab my What did I just put that I can't see where I put anything Underneath my paper There we go Just going to take the backing off again And then grab that Same piece Make sure it's the bottom piece With the triangles And just again Line that one up Ok So now you should have your two side pieces Like this You just make it out With your side pieces facing inwards And then I've got my back here With the three inch score line And the front Which is that big piece With nothing, nothing scored on it So I'm going to start with the back So I'm going to Whole fold this piece up here Right Bring this up And you want this tab Facing inwards Folded inwards And I'm just going to take off My backing Ok And what I would suggest is Just tack The bottom Just lining it up And then you can kind of hold the rest of the card up Making sure it meets the top Pull it really tall And then just go along And stick it down And then if you pop it on this side With your bone folder Just go and flatten That tab inside Making sure it's all nicely stuck down Now if I bring that up Can you see We've got a perfect join And that three inch score line on the back Will marry up With the three inch score line That we've done here Just at the top Of the triangle folds That we've got there So that's that side So now We need to do The this side here So again I'm just going to take off My backing Hopefully you can see all this Well enough And you can see What it is that you've got to do It is pretty self-explanatory Once you've got the base And everything kind of stuck on the bottom The sides are all pretty straight forward So again Just tack the bottom Making sure the kind of Three inch score lines meet up Because that means you'll get a nice fold When we fold it flat And then I just pull it really tall Up to the top And then the rest Will line up So now if you've got a little bit That comes over So if you see Just here For a very very tiny bit Just grab your snips And just very carefully Take that off And then you can just Take a little slither off Just to kind of line it back up again No one's going to notice that So that is my back All stuck Then you want to do the same With the front So again Those two pieces are going to fold down And then stick And then there is The box So you can see how it all comes together inside So again I'm just going to open this one up Take the backing off of here Fold this one over You can do both at the same time If you want I'm not going to risk it I'm just going to do one at a time So again I'm just going to pull it Right up to the top this time And then the rest I can just pop in And just make sure I'm pulling it in underneath Get that all lined Lined up Take your time with it Turn it over again And with your bone folder Just get that all nicely Okay See now I've got a nice Corner It looks so nice with these You know Different papers It's nice to have it all Kind of Clashing And then again I've just taken that one off And just Just tack it slightly on the bottom there And then you can kind of Just work your way Up along the sides Until you get to the top So Again Turn it over Another little bit That's just kind of coming Over the top there So I'm just going to See their start from there And kind of blend it Across So it's all nice Okay Now because you've already Worked those score lines With the triangle bits On the back If you put your finger Push your finger Like so Start getting it all in And then kind of Bring the back Bring it up like so And then the whole thing All filled flat Okay And just make sure You've got nice Yeah, it's all in there And you can kind of Just go And work your Score lines All in And now they're perfect For storing You can see there on the side So we've got a huge gift bag So now I just need to Add my tassels And my tag And make my hole punches So what I'm going to do Is bring in My pin pad here And then I came in At Four inches from each side Now Because the Pliers that I've got here For the eyelet Can only go in Go down so far That it was going to go right over the rose Kind of rose gold trim there Border Which I didn't want to do So I'm going to come up here Okay So go down as far as that goes really It's about one inch But I'm going to Come in at four inches from each side And I'm going to keep it within That top Kind of area here Okay, so four inches And again Four inches Which is about there Like so Then what I can do is Take the pin pad out And then just Mark the holes Through the bottom there as well And then I'm going to use This one To create my Holes So And again I've got all my eyelets here You know I haven't got rose gold And I haven't even seen Any rose gold Rose gold Rose gold But I'm just going to use silver It was fine It's such a small amount And it went better than Putting gold with it I'm just going to pull out Four silver ones there And then you just want to Carefully Kind of wedge them in Because they will fit perfectly Within those holes And then grab your pliers Use that one Just do the same on the back And the last one there on the back So if I just bring that up You can just see It's such a nice finish Because it's a big bag You're going to have something bigger And heavier in it You want to have A strong A hole there That's going to be Able to withhold Any kind of pressure So now These ones here Again, just ones that I've saved You can put obviously Normal ribbon through this Doesn't matter if you don't have these But Just feed it through the back there And then I've got my Gift tag And I want that one about there So I'm just going to Loop that one straight around Actually I don't need to worry about Notting that one Like so And this one I want a bit shorter So I'm just going to Knot that one And then Cut the top Knot it around This So that nothing moves around So And then I can just Tie a nice bow Like so And there you have it Nice tag already These are going to be Looking fantastic Once they're filled I'm going to have tissue Kind of coming out the top So they're going to look great So there you have it It's two very very big Shop brought size Gift bags 12 by 12 by 6 The biggest ones I've made so far I will
