I was in need of a bag for a friend’s gift that I will give soon and this kit is just the ticket!
So here is my project for today:

I cut a piece of the Background and Texture Paper 11 1/2 x 9”, I scored the 11 1/2” side (this is butted up to the edge on the trimmer) at 4, 5 1/2, 9 1/2, 11”, then scored the 9” side at 1 1/2 and 7 1/2”. I also cut the paper (a few flaps off top, one corner off bottom and trim the bottom flaps up to the score line) to look like this:


I rounded the corners on the flap, adhered the 1/2” strip to the inside of ‘back’ of bag, adhered bottom flaps and just squished in the sides to close:


I am just using Tombow to close the bag, you could also use a Velcro circle if you want it to open and close again:


Just decorate and inset a fun gift! The bags are fun and easy to make! This paper and extras that come with it are so pretty and fun to play with! I hope you have as much fun as I am!

Here is my project for today:

I did a fun little card that also includes the new Color of the year, Sugarplum:

I centered the Cardstock and pattern paper on the front of the card base (opens to right side). Then for the sentiment base piece I centered the pink watercolor patter, however, you will notice that I left the top and bottom at 1/4” each of white showing and only 1/8” (to match the card sides) showing on the ends.

I also wrapped the Peacock word patter strip around the center of the pink piece and secured it on the back.

I stamped the sentiment (From the STAMP of The Month, S1809 Just Treats) in Peacock Ink and colored the ‘fat’ parts of the letters with the Sugarplum Shimmer brush, as well as the drops. I stamped the candies in black ink and the inside with Sugarplum. I then colored the candies (from D1806 Hello Pumpkin Stamp Set) with the Sugarplum Shimmer Brush, on the inside stripes and halfway on the wrapper ends (I just squiggled lines to try and match the wrapper end and then colored it in). I added 3 Bitty diamonds on the sentiment piece (by the droplets).

I adhered the sentiment at an angle to the pink strip and popped up the candies with thin pop dots.

Here you can see the shimmer:


I hope you like my project today. Here are the dimensions for the card pieces:
