My challenge is to make a shopping tote because this girlfriend just loves to shop, online, on the phone and in the stores, any way I can. My challenge would be to make a tote bag that was featured on the cover of Paper Crafts magazine in March of 2006. I have made some of these and they are easy to make. You can fill them with goodies for a gift, a gift card and a hand made card, or do like I did and fill the tote with a set of handmade cards.
Below are the directions for the template. I want to thank scarlett for posting the template. I found that the sides stuck the best if I used sticky dots or two sided sticky tape.

Uploading Instructions:
You have 45 minutes to complete this challenge.
When uploading, be sure to put the challenge code FEB07VSNM in the keyword section. If you use additional keywords, you must separate them with a comma. The keywords ensure that I am able to find the card for judging!
Copying and pasting the keyword code is recommended to avoid typos.
You do not have to post a link to your creation or a thumbnail in the chat thread to be judged, though doing so will increase the number of views your card receives.
If you have any questions, Stamphappy6805 will be available in the chat thread. Happy stamping!

Take a sheet of card stock and score along the 11" side in at 1 1/4 inches on both sides. Turn the paper so that you are now scoring along the 8 1/2" side and score up 4 1/2 inches on both sides. I am looking for the original link, sorry. You will go up to the score lines in the middle and cut just until you reach the score line. You need to do this so that you can fold the flaps of your box together.

Even if you had trouble opening the instructions, this tote bag is very easy to make.......go for it, you will be glad you did.
I make these all the time for gifts and they are super easy and fun !!!
Now on a serious note. ( I can be serious sometimes )
Anita, You have to submit the Girl Scout tote somewhere, that is awesome !!!!
How did you get the ridged line ( red) along the top, is it dry embossed ?
