2 pieces 5½ x 4¾" lemon bazzill carsdstock for back & front covers

2 lemon eyelets

1 piece smooth white scrap card for stamping

Silent setter or crop a dile

Polka dot ribbon

2½" circle punch

3" scallop circle punch

Small scrap of blue bazzill cardstock

 

 

Supplies needed for notecards

4 pieces 5½ x 4¼" lemon bazzill cardstock

4 pieces 5¼ x 4" smooth white card

 

 

Firstly take your 8½ x 11" blue bazzill card and across the top of the 8½ side score it at 6" and 6¼".

Then turn your card and across the top of the 11" side, score it at 5¼" and 5¾".

 

 

Then, with your scissors you need to cut out the small middle section at the bottom. Cut up to the top score line.

 

 

Now fold and crease all your score lines with your bone folder

 

You now need to add your 2 eyelets that are going to hold down your pockets. You only need 1 eyelet for each pocket. Take your setter and punch about ½ an inch in from the side. Repeat this on the other pocket

 

Now set your eyelets and remember the flattened back of your eyelets will be showing on the front and back of your wallet... but don’t worry as these will be covered in the next step.

 

Take your 2 pieces of 5½ x 4¾" lemon bazzill card and on one of them adhere the designer paper onto  it. Adhere this entire piece to the front of your wallet & adhere the remaining blank lemon piece to the back of your wallet. You will now notice that these cover up the back of your flattened eyelets.

 

Now, on the back of your wallet stick a small piece of double sided tape in the middle of your lemon cover. Attach your ribbon around the wallet so that the ribbon sticks down at the back and then you can tie it up at the front of your wallet.

 

Take your elzybells clear stamps and stamp your image onto the small piece of smooth white card. Colour and then punch out with your 2½" circle punch. Then, take your small scrap of blue bazzill card and punch out a 3" scallop circle and mount the image onto the blue scallop. Attach to the front cover of your wallet. Then stamp the elzybells sentiment ‘just a little note’ on a piece of smooth white card and mount onto a piece of blue bazzill card. Adhere this sentiment to the bottom right corner on your designer paper.

 

 

Finally, we need to make the notelets.

Take a piece of the smooth white card 5¼ x 4" and stamp your sentiment across the 4" top. Then stamp your image in the bottom right hand corner. Repeat this with the 3 remaining pieces of smooth white card. Then adhere the white card  to the 5 ½ x 4 ¼" lemon card and repeat this  with the remaining 3 pieces. Stamp your image onto the envelope and colour, repeat this with the 3 remaining envelopes.

 

 

 

Now add your notelets and envelopes inside your wallet pockets and tie up.
