Cute mini tote bag with fry box die

I have made a lot of fry boxes using fry box dies. But that's not all. You can make a mini tote bag with the die. 

Here is how. Fold the card stock  in half. Place the cardstock, folded side down on the die.

Place the card stock  one the die at the position where you see the half of the rest of the die. (Hope that make sense to you.)

And cut out ! Put it together as usual. It looks like the regular fry box but it is shorter and both sides are same length. I punched the holes to attached the ribbon as a handle.  

The ribbon is glued with glue dots. I used the 1 inc circle punch to hide the ugly bit inside the ribbon handle.

I missed you ! BIG SHOT.

My boxes from Japan finally arrived yesterday. 9 of 15 boxes have my stamping and cardmaking stuff!

I missed my stash so much and most of all I missed my Big Shot terribly. 

I can't remember the days I didn't own Big Shot or any kinds of die cut machine. Once you tasted die cutting, you can't live without it. 

So I dug in the boxes and found my Big Shot and a fry box die.  I love this die and I have used it so many times. 

I like to decorate the front of the box with DSP.

It is so easy to do. Just put the paper on the exact part that you want the paper to be cut. I need only this part on DSP .

So I placed the paper like this and run through the Big Shot.

I used the banner stamp from the Number of Years stamp set so I can stamp a little  flower and leave stamp in a different colour. Make sure you get "Number of Years Bundle" instead of a Number of Years stamp set and a coordinated die separately. You can get 15% off for Bundle. 

"Thanks"is from Endless Thanks set.
