    2. Punch a half circle in the centre of the short section – see diagram.
    3. Glue the sides of the short side and fold up to form pocket.

    Ribbon
    Tag and sentiment stamp or sticker
    Circle Punch ¾” diameter


    1. Take the card (7.5 cm x 15 cm) and fold in half.
    2. Punch a half circle on the 7.5 cm side.
    3. Glue the 2 sides together to form a pocket.
    4. Tie a bow with the ribbon and make the tag.
    5. Make a hole in the tag for the brad. Thread the brad through the bow and tag.







    6. Make a mark where the brad will go on the top section and pouch section. See the diagram for the placement of the brad. Punch a hole through the pouch section and the top section.
    7. Place the brad through all holes. The top section should now be hinged to the pouch section.

    Card 12 cm x 12 cm – 4 pieces
    Patterned Paper 10.5 cm x 10.5 cm – 2 pieces
    Card 5 cm x 5 cm – for the small circle
    Card 10 cm x 6 cm - pocket
    Card 10.6 cm x 10.6 cm - base
    Scalloped Circle Spellbinders – Largest (approx 10.6 cm diameter), 2nd Largest (approx 9.4 cm diameter) and the smallest (approx 4 cm diameter)

    3. Cut 1 small scalloped circle out of the card 5 cm x 5 cm.


    4. Score the 4 large circles in half and fold along the score lines. See the diagram and photo as a guide for the scoring, as they must be scored and folded this way.


    5. Cut the 2 circles in half – the same way as the large circles are folded – see photo in step 4.
    6. Glue the circle halves to the one side of the folded large circles.
    7. Take the card 10.6 cm x 10.6 cm and the folded large circles and glue one of the circles to the card – see photo for placement.






    8. Do the same for the other 3 folded large circles – do the opposite one first and then the other 2.












    9. Glue the ribbon to the back of the small circle.
    10. Turn the complete layered card over and glue the small circle over the hole that is showing. Turn it back over.












    11. Punch a half circle in the centre of the long side of the card (10 cm x 6 cm).
    12. Glue the card to the inside of the layered card to form a pocket.














    To close the Holder:
    Interlock the half circles and then tie the ribbon in a bow.
