How to make a Christmas cash wallet

Hi, how are you all ? How have you all been? I need to apologise again for my absence last week, I had still not been feeling very good. However, I am back now. I still have to have my tooth extracted as it is still giving me pain each day but I need to pluck up the courage for that one!! I took my mind off it today and I went out to the Studio to do today’s video on how to make a Christmas cash wallet.

As the grandchildren are getting older, I gift cash to them instead of buying them things that perhaps they don’t want!! I am happy to do this but I am not happy about just popping money into their Christmas cards, I want them to realise that I have thought about them, so I make these wallets to put the cash in. I make them every year just with different papers!

Whilst I am here, I would just like to thank you all very much for coming along today to read my blog. I do hope that you will be inspired to make your own wallets.

This is the wallet I made during the video

These are all of the wallets for the grandchildren this year.

Products Used

A4 Basic White thick card stock
Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper
Delivering Cheer Stamp
Ornate Frames Dies
Evening Evergreen Ink pad

Instructions

Cut your A4 piece of thick white card stock to measure 23cm x 18cm. (9 1/16″ x 7 1/16″)

Score on the long side at 7cm & 16cm. (2 3/4″ & 6 5/16″) and on the short side at 1cm on each edge – cut from the bottom to the last score line on both edges. Taper the flaps.

Fold & burnish your score lines.

Using your corner rounder, round off the top flap and the bottom flap, if required.

Place double sided tape or wet glue on the small flaps and fold up to create the pocket.

Now cut 2 pieces of Designer Series paper to measure 15.5cm x 6 .5cm ( 6 1/8″ x 2 5/8″). If using 6″ x 6″ paper then just cut at 2 5/8″. Round edges if required. Adhere to your wallet
