To celebrate our new Annual Catalogue, & our lovely new In-Colours, I'm bringing you 5 projects, which are all variations on a theme, of fold flat boxes & bags.
Todays project is this cute little clutch bag. It's similar to yesterdays project, but this one needs no glue!
I've made this little bag in the fabulous new colour Bumble Bee! Unfortunately, I haven't yet got the new ribbon in this colour, but I think this retired Crushed Curry ribbon worked quite well!
Hope you like it!
Thanks for stopping by

Instructions:
All you need is 1 piece of 6" x 6" In-Colour DSP in Bumble Bee
Score at 1 1/2", 4 1/2" (3.8cm, 11.4cm)
turn through 90° and score at 3/4", 2 3/4", 4". (2cm, 7cm, 10.2cm)
Remove the 2 sections marked in the template below, and round the corners of the resultant flap.
Fold & gently burnish your score lines.
Fold your 1 1/2" sides in to meet in the middle.
Hold the project in the top left hand corner with one hand. With the other hand, put your finger under the left hand flap in the centre. pull it back, until the score line next to your finger, lines up with the vertical score line, forming a diagonal crease. gently burnish the crease.
Repeat for all 4 corners. If you unfold your project, it should now look something like this.
Fold the sides in and fold up the bag, using the centre sections to form the sides. push your fingers into the side sections to gently crease them.
You should now be able to tuck the flap into the pocket formed between the centre bottom of the template and the folded in flaps, forming your clutch bag.
Decorate with a ribbon.
