Instructions
Pull apart mini paper bag. This will serve as your pattern. Lay paper bag flat on So Saffron textured card stock (10-1/2" x 6-3/4"), and trace using pencil.
Hold ruler firmly against paper bag, and trace fold lines of paper bag onto card stock using tip of bone folder or scoring blade from Cutter Kit, lining up the ruler along each fold to ensure a straight mark. Press firmly so that fold lines are imprinted into card stock through the paper bag.
Cut out favor, but do not assemble.
Score So Saffron textured card stock (3" x 5-3/8") at 1" on long side to create flap. Scallop edge of Whisper White textured card stock, and adhere to back side of So Saffron card stock so that Whisper White scalloped edge shows along edge of So Saffron card stock.
Adhere So Saffron card stock to what will be the back of your favor once it's assembled so that flap will hang over the top of the bag.

Fold favor along scored fold lines, and adhere overlapping edges.
