Cut the pocket out twice. Glue them together forming a box. Trim the side flaps on one pocket. Then glue the box (pocket) to your project. This way you now have two flaps at the bottom overlapping. Hope this helps! TU4S
I feel ya, I had the same issue yesterday trying to make the KSCrafts lunch box and it didn't turn out. Just hard when there's not a good tutorial. Hang in there!
Awww, your tote still looks pretty. Don’t get rid of your dies, you’ll get it right lol. 😊 Check out Craft Eccentricity, Ms.Sharon has a Let’s make this tutorial on this die set. I unfortunately cancelled my order because it was taking forever. Says it’ll be mid June to July. I usually decide when someone does a review/tutorial before buying. Thanks for sharing! 🤦🏻♀️ I’ll be subscribing, let us know how it goes! ✌🏻 🙋🏻♀️💕 ~Cindy
Try folding the sides like a paper bag instead of like a box. Make the folds on the sides opposite of how they are folded now. That way the sides will compress down when the sides and bottom are glued.
the side pockets are more like a gusset, not a box.. so fold like a paper fan so it's a V and it will work. I'm surprised the die didn't come with instructions? 💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜 depending on how you store your dies, I always pop a note or instruction with my dies, I have so many now it can be hard to remember what or how each one goes together.
I just sent some photos via IG. The folds on the side are like a valley, not square, thus creating a somewhat slanted pocket. :). I can see how you'd get frustrated!
Yeah set it aside and work on something else. I have a die set I got from tonic studio it makes this most beautiful dresser but the way they have you put the doors in such a pain you can barely open the drawers up. I've tried many different ways to put them on. It seems like there is a die set you love the most and there is a problem. I have a die set that makes an album but I have yet to figure it out and there's no tutorials on it I got it from tonic studio
Yeah I am definitely an idiot and I was folding things incorrectly. I'm going to try it again and I'll show you guys if I can get it to work but it will probably be in a few days

I second this. The sides should be like an accordion fold. And no you’re not dumb! Happens to all of us.
👍 this!
I'll definitely try that. I feel so dumb ATM
@@tinas_craft_creations you’ve been crafting so much, you probably needed a break.
@@tinas_craft_creations you are not dumb! I struggle with some of these dies too; trying to figure out how some of these go together.

No, they don't normally but I appreciate the help ❤️
Id glue each tab down at a time, glue the bottom piece down first and hold it down tight until dry, then do the same to one of the sides, then again.
Yeah apparently I was just folding everything wrong because I'm an idiot lol 🤦🤦
@@tinas_craft_creations You're not an Idiot. Cutting dies should come with instructions
I'm sure you will get it right! It looks better then anything I would make lol Tfs Have a great day sweetie😊💗😊💗
Thank you, after all the kind comments, I have finally figured out what I was doing wrong and I'll try again another day ❤️
It's a die. It shouldn't be this hard. Defeats the purpose of even buying the die. 😢
Agreed, But thanks to these lovely ladies who commented, I know what I was doing wrong and I'll keep the die and try it again 😉

Thank you so much for everything, I appreciate you ❤️
Try trimming the corners on the bottom of the pocket maybe they may cut down the bulk or let it dry really well before trying to glue the sides.
I think I was just folding it wrong, I really don't know. I'm going to retry it at a later date and will let you guys know
That's a good idea. Thank you! 😊

Your pockets side folds are supposed to fold like a z type fold not box 😊
Yeah, I know that now. Thank you so much ❤️
That doesn’t look right at all.
Yeah I am definitely an idiot and I was folding things incorrectly. I'm going to try it again and I'll show you guys if I can get it to work but it will probably be in a few days
@@tinas_craft_creations I would have done the same that you were doing.
I think the sides should fold like valley folds and not in box fold. Try that and see if it works.
Thank you for the tip. I'll definitely try that. I don't know why I had it in my mind that it was supposed to be like this. Hopefully you're right 🤞🤞
