For inside the card base cut three pieces of paper (1x) 4" x 3.25", (1x) 4" x 2.25" and 4" x 4.75"(1x)

Score the 4.25" x 11" piece of card at 3.5" and 8.5"

Score the 4" x 9.5" piece of paper (gift bag) on the long side at 0.5", 1", 4.5" 5", 5.5" and 9". Score on the short side at 0.5" and 3"

Cut away all the sections marked below, leaving just the long outside panels.

With the 1" section at the top, mark down 0.5" from the 1" score line, and in 0.75" from the score lines creating the 3" x 2.5" panels. Punch holes for the handles.

Cut two pieces of twine measuring approx 4" and thread through the holes. Secure with some double sided tape.

Apply adhesive to the 1" section, remove all the tape liner, then fold the 1" section down over the twine ends.

With the outside of the bag facing you, apply adhesive to the end with the single 0.5" section.

Line up with the 0.5" score line on the opposite end and fold the end 0.5" section over it.

Apply adhesive to the 0.5" sections at the bottom of the bag - on both the front and the back of the bag.

Adhere the paper panels inside the card base.

Line the 0.5" section of the bag up to the 3.5" score line on the card base. Remove the tape backing and fold the 3.5" section down over the bag. Remove the tape from the other side of the bag and fold the middle panel down over it.

When the card is opened, the bag pops up, revealing the gift card.

Layer the paper onto the panels for the card front and adhere down.

Take the belly band piece of card, centre it across the front of the card, and wrap it around the card loosely.

Remove and glue the ends together.

Cover front and back with the paper panels. Slide the band back on to ensure it is a good fit.

Stamp the sentiment onto the 3-7/8" square piece of card and adhere on the large middle panel inside.

Cut a scalloped circle measuring approx 4" and layer on some paper stitched circles (red - 3.75" & candles - 3.5")

Apply foam tape across the belly band, keeping within the size used for the scalloped circle (4"). Adhere the circle panel onto the belly band and then adhere Mini Oddball has a Present, also using foam tape.
