Handbag Gift Box Spring Roses with ButterflyCompleted by Margaret McCartney

I printed the design onto good quality 255gsm photographic paper and cut it out. I scored and folded each side of the bag as instructed. I assembled the bag using strong double sided tape.

I punched two holes where indicated on the top flap and threaded lilac organza ribbon through the holes to create the handle.

I secured the ribbon using strong double sided tape on the underside of the flap. I then added this flap to the bag as instructed using strong double sided tape. I also used ribbon to attach the gift tag to the bag.

To secure the flap I use a magnetic fastener that I attached to the bag before adding the top flap.

I added the large butterfly using thin foam tape on the body only. I placed a blob of silicone glue under the wings to give more definition. I added glitter to the butterfly to complete this gorgeous bag.
