I Dig You Gift Bags

I promised more info on my blog hop projects, so here is the info on the gift bags :)
For all of the bags, you will trim off the smallest section on one bottom corner, this is below the side flap.


Blue Bag
DSP 6½"x12"

Scoring:
With 6½" side at top, score at 1½"
Turn 90° to the left, scored line is now closest to the bottom and the 12" side is at the top
Score at 4", 5½", 9½", and 11"

This bag got a little decorative edge too with an edgelit. You have to do it after it is all scored and the side flap is adhered, but before you fold up the bottom flaps. It just fits through the Big Shot :)


Orange Bag
DSP 6"x12"

Scoring:
With 6" side at top, score at 2"
Turn 90° to the left, scored line is now closest to the bottom and the 12" side is at the top
Score at 3½", 5½", 9", and 11"



Green Bag
DSP 7¼"x12"

Scoring:
With 7¼" side at top, score at 2¾"
Turn 90° to the left, scored line is now closest to the bottom and the 12" side is at the top
Score at 2¾", 5½", 8¼", and 11"

The supplies I used for these bags were all pretty similar and they came together really quickly. I didn't even think really hard about the dimensions, I just started scoring, making sure that my total inches needed did not exceed 12".
