I was wondering also. They are all very cute.

Have you ever heard of a bag a lope?

If so I think it is similar to that just make the fold larger so it forms a box. Do a search for bag a lope and and see if there are directions to that, that may help you.

Just a suggestion hope it helps,
Cyndi

The directions for the bagalope are.. Take an envelope, seal it. Cut one on the finished sides off about 1/4-1/2 inch. Lay the envelope on a flat surface, and fold the sides in 1/4-1/2 inch and the bottom also. Unfold the sides, hold the open end of the envelope up and open it. You will notice that it looks like a paper sack, push the middle creases on the sides in, there will be a small triangular flap on each side, adhere them to the bottom, and you have a bagalope.

What is the difference between a "box-a-lope" and a "bag-a-lope"?

My guess is that a box a lope is square where the bag a lope is not. It is wider than it is deep.

Also wanted to bump this up.

Default box-a-lope

Thanks all for the reply's. I posted this yesterday and then went on an all day Shopping trip. It was great. I know how to make the Bag-A-Lope love them. But in the directions to this she says that she used SU Midium Envelope. That just doesn't seem big enough to make it a square box. I did do some searching on the advanced search and didn't find anything. Hope this gets it up to the top and get the directions. Kathy

Click on the link above and then pm stampin'ink with your email address she will send the file to you. I just got it and can't wait to try them. They are alot like the bags but just how you cut and score it on the envelope. Thanks so much Amy. Kathy

I, too, would love the insturctions to the box-a-lope. And the bag-a-lope if you have it. I love this site and have been "trying" out the ones I can figure out and begging for the ones I can't figure out. [email protected]
THANK YOU Twila

Default Gift card and mini envelopes matchbox set

I am up loading a Christmas Thank You card set and matching matchbox set. The instructions used were from Artwork by Brita Doyle. I am in the Forums trying to find her instruction sheet so that I can include it in my comments. You can look at my set, it should be uploaded later today (Mon.) or Tues. My gallery is escaladymom. You can email me at [email protected]! Good luck! These make great gifts!! I have made several!

Could I get the instructions for a box-a-lope and bag-a-lope too?

This sounds like fun! Thanks in advance.
