Money Roll Gift Bag Tutorial

I usually gift money during the Holiday season for the teens and other hard to shop for loved ones in my life. How about you?  The thing about gifting money, is that it isn’t all that personal and it’s not all that easy to dress up!  Well, that’s until I found Lori’s super cute Money Roll Gift Bag (SVGSilhouette).  I’m making several of these this year for all the teens on my Christmas List.  I think they’ll get a kick out of it and make the gift giving a little more special.

I used Lori’s My Favorite Christmas Paper Collection when cutting out the pieces, as well as some plain white cardstock .

To begin, you can ink the edges of the designer paper to add some depth to the project. Feel free to skip this step if you’d like.

Next, glue down the designer paper panels to both boxes and gather some ephemera, stickers and ribbon to embellish both boxes.

Then, fold all score lines in, as shown.

The Gift Bag goes together pretty easy.  Add glue to the side tab and fold other side over to join the sides of the box.

Then fold the bottom of the box in and glue down.

To assemble the money roll box, glue the side tab to the opposite side panel.

Fold side tabs on one end of the box to close it. Tape your money together, end to end and add the pull tab.  I find Scotch tape works best for this part… it can be peeled off of the bills with out tearing them. Also, it’s really fun to use a bunch of $1 or $5 bills so the money just keeps coming and coming when you pull the tab.

Next, roll your money up as shown…insert it into the box with the tab coming out of the opening at the top of the box.

Decorate the money roll box as well as the gift box however you’d like.

I found several fun pieces of ephemera and chip board from Lori’s My Favorite Christmas Collection to embellish my boxes, as well as some ribbon from my stash.

And that’s it!! You can add a little shred to the bottom of the box and your gift is done!

Who’s the lucky one in your life that will get to pull that tab and find an awesome surprise inside?

Thank you for stopping by!
