5 Festive Paper Crafts Tutorial – Easy DIY Ideas

Hi everyone,

Today I have another 5 ways to use your patterned papers! Today I have chosen to use festive papers but you really could make these projects for any occasion.

The great thing is all I really used was paper and card! I think I used one circle die for a bag topper but that was it! I hope you like what I made.

So we made bag toppers, mini handbag, flat gift bag , trio of boxes and a shadow box gift box. My favourite is the shadow box gift box, I love that and also the bag toppers are so cute!

Please check out my Youtube tutorial which shows you step by step how to make these lovely projects.

Below I will list all the measurements.

TRIO OF GIFT BOXES:

YOUR PAPER NEEDS TO MEASURE 11 3/4 X 8 1/4″

SCORE THE LONG SIDE @ 3/4, 1 1/2, 5 1/2, 6 1/4, 10 1/4 & 11″

SCORE THE SHORT SIDE @ 3/4 & 1 1/2″ ON BOTH SIDES
