1. Cut a strip of scrapbook paper measuring 18 x 3 centimeters. Using a quilters ruler for accuracy, score a line one centimeter from the long edge of the strip.
|
|
|
2. Now score a second line along the other long edge of the strip.
Now you have three x 1 centimeter widths. The center of the strip will be the side wall of the goodie holder. Both of the other sides will be glued to the heart pieces. To do so...
|
|
|
3. ...cut 1 centimeter tabs up until the scored lines on both sides of the strip.
|
|
|
4. Fold the tabs in. Now fold your strip in half so that it is 9 centimeters long.
|
|
|
5. Cut two hearts out that are approximately 15 centimeters wide and 15 centimeters high. The size can vary depending which heart shape you choose to use.
|
|
|
6. Place glue on the outer side of the tabs on one of side of the strip. Then, starting where the long strip is folded (this is the bottom of the heart), glue the strip to bottom edge of one of the hearts. Work your way up the side of the heart. Make sure the side wall is well alligned to the edge of the heart. Then repeat for the other side of the heart.
Then repeat the procedure for the second heart piece. When finished, the strip will connect the two hearts and you will have a side wall measuring 1 centimeter in thickness.

|
7. Now punch a hole in each center top of the hearts...

|
|
8. ...and cut a paper strip that measures 2 x 18 centimeters and punch also a hole in each of the short sides.
|
|
|
9. Connect the strip now to the heart like a handle on both sides. Insert a brad through the holes to hold the pieces together.
Then decorate the heart as you please.
