 Hi everybody it's Sam with Mixed Up Craft, thank you for watching my tutorial today. I've got this, I'm calling it my toothpaste tube gift box, I probably won't put all that in the title but that is what it reminds me of is the end of the toothpaste when you're kind of rolling the toothpaste tube down and this would be the end here so it's got a circular bottom on it so I know a lot of this kind of style have the square base and it's just you know made and closes like at the bottom of the square box but this one's a bit different so very very big it's um it measures in width you're looking the bottom the smallest width of it is four inches ish and then obviously it gets taller towards the top it also gets narrower um this just comes off here and then you just unroll you don't have to roll it over like I have and then just open up and it is literally just like a tube and then inside is a big circular area so you can get loads in this it's really really fun it just folds over again and then I've just got my little kind of sign there hanging over the top so really easy and relatively quick to make so you're going to need now I'm aware you know I've got obviously I'm from the UK and I've got lots of UK followers um this one here is by Craftsmith which is only available um to buy current stock from Michaels in the US um so I will find as many links as I can for you to be able to maybe get this one um this was also backdated this is from 2016 um but it's still being sold um and I purchased this from an online retailer here in China so it's huge Craftsmith if you can ever get hold of it if you are in the UK it's amazing card it just is lovely um they're huge paper packs this is 48 and they're all different I mean a lot of you know some of them are for like scrapbooking as well but um there's just beautiful this one's all themed around their maids and stuff like that but bits and pieces I've used here um you'll probably recognise that from the um pillow box gift boxes I made at Christmas um there's just all sorts here so yeah it's it's lovely and I plan to try and get hold of some more of the Craftsmith stuff if I can but again I think they they do do six by six and I believe eight by eight packs as well this is the 12 by 12 huge okay so that is the paper pack and then today's one that I'm using is this lovely seashell um one here and then um I've got a treasure from the sea um little tag that I've just cut out from one of the the um scrapbooking pages and inside this I plan on putting um a one of those nice um oh what are they called the bath salts so that's uh the gift idea that I've got for this so you just need um a little bulldog clip here I've got these gold ones and then you need two discs here I'll give you the measurements in a second but you got your 12 by 12 piece of card stock um actually now I'll give you those now this is three and a half diameter sorry not just yeah I said just under four so three and a half so whatever um circle dies you've got that a near to three and a half you don't want any bigger because this is literally just sits around the bottom but you can go maybe a little bit smaller but not too much okay so you need two and then one for the inside and one for the outside so with your 12 inch piece of card stock here what you want to do is obviously I want it so that this is all facing up so this is going to be the base so what I'm doing now is your bottom of your card stock so you want to make sure that the bottom of your card stock is here on the left hand side okay whatever you've got that's got a print that needs to be the right way out so you just want to do one score line at one one and a half inches okay and then with that bring it along to the top here and then you just want to score along just down to that score line you've done but you want to score it every half inch so half inch one inch one and a half two two and a half three and so on all the way along every half inch until you get to the end so your last one will be 11 and a half inches okay that's all the scoring you need to do on this one so I'm just going to get my scoreboard now what you want to do is burnish this main score line here use mine put my bone tool there we go so just get a nice crease there on that one okay and then what you want to do again basically want to now curl the card just like you would with your scissors and the kind of plastic string at Christmas time um you just want to do the same thing there you just want to underneath it just try in just so it's kind of naturally arching it's just going to help when we come to put it all together okay so you can see now it's kind of lifted up a bit I can see now that when I go to curl it around it's going to sit nicely so now what we need to do is just cut up every one of these score lines just to that line don't go over the line literally just right up to it if you go over you will risk seeing it on the other side and just go along and just do that on every one of those score lines okay so now I've got all these like tassly bits hanging and again just make sure you can use your finger and your thumb you just want to make sure that you just want to roll wherever it joins here just make sure you kind of rolling it a bit like so okay now what you want to do is run some tape now depending on you don't want to go any bigger than um this width of tape otherwise your disc here it will all make sense when it comes together but this is kind of the standard width which is half an inch so you don't want your tape to be any bigger than half an inch um I'm actually using this is slightly smaller this is just over a quarter of an inch so this will be okay as well and I'm just going to run this down this side here start it from the top of that score line and hug right up to the edge until you get to the top of your paper and just cut that off so just make sure that that's nicely secured out of the paper okay and then take that off turn it over and then you want to start from the top and just sit it so it covers the tape so I'm just gonna just kind of lightly tack it along and make sure it all lines up once you're happy with the top there then you can kind of work your way down until you get to the very bottom here again make sure that's all lined up perfectly with that past and with that sticky tape put your hand in the middle there and just kind of run it through so it's all stuck down okay so now you've got your tube and then what you want to do is just push all of this in like so okay and then what we're going to be doing is sticking one of those on the bottom there like so okay so I'm going to grab my wet glue and turn it over just put a splodge of glue all on this okay and then just kind of do like so don't worry too much at this point just get it on the bottom and then I can't really get this in spring so I need to put my hand over it but I'm putting my hand down in the middle of the tube now making sure so I'm just you can just see my arms in the tube and I'm just going around to make sure it all sticks down perfectly and you don't want the disc showing over the edges and then you'll know that you've got a perfect circle okay once you've got it in place there okay all I'm using now is my ruler and I'm just pushing it down all the way around there just to make sure you don't need to worry that some of these bits on top here haven't even you know stuck to the bottom because you're going to put that other piece on the top so it doesn't matter I'm just literally going around there I'm just going to come out of the camera just so I can get in there okay and then just check on the bottom you just want to make sure you can see there that the disc hasn't gone off and coming on focus there okay so it's all in the middle and then grab your other one again load of glue around this make sure you get right up to the edges and then just lie this down and just kind of hold it in until you get right in there and then you can kind of drop it down inside like so okay and then again get your ruler and just go around make sure that's also as I always say this the glue I'm using here the Alina's tacky glue this dries really hard it's perfect for these kind of projects and also it means that you can put quite heavy stuff in them okay so there we go so there's the bottom of my tube and then all you want to do is where you've got your seam here at the back make sure that's in the middle and just pinch down the top here and then just kind of squeeze like so and I'm going to fold this over twice so what you can do is grab your ruler kind of line it up so you get a nice straight line and you can either bend it towards you or away from you so actually I want to bend this away from me so I'm going to flip it over put my ruler down like so and then just lift it all up push it against that and then that just starts me off now and I know I've got a nice straight line so again just burnish this all nicely so if you just want to fold it over the once then you can I am going to do this twice like so and then you can grab your bulldog clip and pop it on top now you've got a nice blank canvas to decorate so this is going to stick right up near the top here like so so I'm going to use some I'm going to use some foam tape I think actually for this one so I've just got a roll of it here and I'm just going to put a strip through the middle not going to put loads on this one just hang on the middle there make sure that's not hanging out there okay and then just hold it up so I can get it nice and even that's about right there we go a really nice rather large gift bag the gift box even gift tube there we go gift toothpaste tube and there you have it so two really nice gift tubes I hope you like this one from me today please hit the like
