I love givng note card sets as gifts. We made these little totes at my stamp club in November-each one uses 1 sheet of paper and holds standard (4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″) cards. You can make them using any color/pattern-since we always make 3 projects at club, I had to keep it simple so folks could get through all the projects in the evening.

 To start lay your paper and stamp your design-here I did a very simple one color (Real Red) using the SU! set Snowflake Spot.  Score horizontally across at 1 1/4″ and 7 1/4″.

Then score vertically at 4 1/2″ and 6 1/2″. You will cut up to the other score lines that run horizontally at those points (2 cuts at the top, 2 at the bottom).

I added patterned paper and a strip of red across for the “bracket”. Before I added the brads I used SU! wide grosgrain robbon and created the tote handles.  Once they were on I used folded up the box and used SU! sticky strip for the sides.

VOILA! a cute little tote that can be filled with cards or other goodies!

I am making notecards for the “specials” teachers at Camden’s school (PE, Music, etc.) and will make totes to match each set of cards as a holiday gift.
