Pinch Topped Bag for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and Welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where we are sharing packaging ideas. I have a pretty pinch top bag which I have made to hold a Lotus biscuit, my treat for the ladies coming to class this week.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the pinch top bag, you will need:

Basic White card – 2½” by 1½”
Pattern Party dsp – 4⅝” by 4”
Basic White – 3½” by 1¼”

 

Using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool, I scored the 2½” by 1½” piece of Basic White at ½” on all four sides.

I cut down to form the four tabs and wedged out a little to help the tabs fold in efficiently to give a better finish.

Fold on all the score lines, add strong glue to each tab and fold in to form a 3d base.

Stick Tear ‘n Tape all the way around the outside of the box and as near the bottom as possible. It is really important to use a strong adhesive for this. Also place a strip of Tear ‘n tape along the 4” edge of the dsp on the reverse side

Peel off the adhesive backing: place the edge of the 4⅝” piece of dsp (the edge without the Tear ‘n Tape) against the bottom of the box with the chosen pattern to the outside. I always start in the middle of one of the long sides as you get a better finish to your bag.

Using your fingers work the dsp around the sides of the box pressing it onto the Tear ‘n Tape. Resist the temptation to crease the dsp, you get a better finish. You should have about ½” of an overlap with the adhesive on the inside.

Peel off the backing and adhere the two sides off the dsp together allowing it to bow out a little.

I die cut a tag from the remaining piece of Basic White using the Tailor-Made Tag Dies.

The ground was stamped in Sahara Sand ink and the sky in Balmy Blue ink. I added the grasses with Early Espresso ink and stamped the sentiment, from the Hydrangea stamp set in Sahara Sand ink.

I inked up the large wave image using Bermuda Bay ink and added patches of Pacific Point and Misty Moonlight using Sponge Daubers and stamped it onto the larger Basic White panel. This was then mounted on the Misty Moonlight panel using the liquid glue.

The pelican on the posts was stamped in Soft Suede ink and coloured using Crumb Cake and So Saffron Blends Markers. I die cut it out using the co-ordinating Wave Dies and added it, on Dimensionals to the stamped panel. The whole piece was then added to the card front, taking care to add ink only to the left-hand side. The top of the stamped panel then tucked under the latch.

I stamped the poles with and without birds three more times on scrap Basic White and cut them out to add inside the card.

The sentiment from the Handsomely Suited stamp set was stamped inside the card in Misty Moonlight ink.

My son loves the sea and I am sure he will enjoy this card.
