How cute is this gift pouch using the glorious Full of Life Designer Series Paper?  It uses one sheet of folded 6" x 6" patterned paper to create a simple gift pouch that fits a small, square chocolate like the Whittaker's Artisan Squares.

Bundles: Keeping Tabs Stamp Set + Keeping Tabs Dies (photopolymer: 163543) or Keeping Tabs Punch (photopolymer: 163540).  Ink: Blackberry Bliss (147092), Berry Burst (147143).  Card/Paper: Basic White (159228), Full of Life 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (163357).  Accessories: Petal Pink & White 1/4" Diagonal Trim Combo Pack (163417).  Tools: Mini Glue Dots (103683), Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (144108).

As I said, begin with a 15 cm x 15 cm (6" x 6") piece of patterned paper and then follow these steps to fold this simple gift pouch...

1. Cut patterned paper at 15 cm x 15 cm (6" x 6") or use patterned paper that is already this size (like the Full of Life Designer Series Paper).
2. Fold the patterned paper in half diagonally to create a triangle.
3. Lay the triangle with the long flat edge along the bottom.  Fold the bottom right corner across the front of the triangle so the folded corner's top edge is level and parallel to the bottom edge.
4. Fold the bottom left corner across the front of the triangle so the folded corner's top edge aligns with the first corner fold.
5. Fold down one layer of the patterned paper from the top corner of the triangle.
6. Decorate with stamped elements and accessories and fill with a yummy treat!

The Full of Life Designer Series Paper is so pretty, I didn't need to do much to decorate my gift pouch.  I stamped the striped border from the Keeping Tabs stamp set in Blackberry Bliss ink and the words in Berry Burst ink on Basic White cardstock then punched the shape out or die-cut it using the coordinating tool.  I then cut the tab in half to create a fun curved label!  To finish, I adhered a loop of white diagonal trim behind the label with Mini Glue Dots and added this to the front of the pocket with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.
