Following the directions on the WRMK Punch Board, make a bag, and poke the handle holes.

Once you’ve made the bag, really crease all the score lines, using the included bone folder.  Glue-Dots-Mom-Treat-Bag-scorApply Premium Permanent GlueTape to the small flap on the right side of your bag. Line it up with the edge of the bag on the opposite side and adhere them together. Make sure you are lining the two sides up as well as possible.  Run some Premium Permanent GlueTape to the bottom flap and glue the bottom together.

With the scrap ribbon, make 2 handles and pull them through the 4 holes on the bag. Double knot them on the inside of the bag, and trim any excess. If you have any ribbon left over tie a small bow and add it to your tag. Use the Permanent GlueTape to glue it to the tag. At this point, write your note on the tag, and once finished, tie it to one of the handles of the bag.
