Wallet Tutorial


Right Here Goes.........


Start by cutting a sheet of A4 card to 16.5cm wide x the A4 length.
Score at 10 and 11cm and then at 21 and 22cm
Round the corners on the end

Fold the score lines


Cut a piece of card 9.5cm long and score it at every half centimetre 7 times (3.5cm)
Repeat for a second panel


Concertina them both up and put a narrow strip of red tape on each end 


Attach the folded strips to each side of the wallet


Fold over the wallet keeping the edges together

Cut a strip of card 2cm wide and wrap it around the wallet. 
Don't pull too tight or you won't have room to put anything in the wallet.
Cut off excess card and glue the ends together

Decorate as you wish
I cut the paper for the band at 1.5cm so it leaves an edge of card on the band and I always cut the papers to leave a border of card showing

Hope this helps you to make lots of wallets
