Gift bag...

Morning all.....Vicky here today to show you how I made this quick and easy gift bag using the adorable Simply Maya "A Package of Love"

Isn't she just gorgeous...

...And here are the items I used...

Stamp ~ Simply Maya "Package of Love"

Dies ~ Lovely Doily, Cute Butterfly Trio & Banner Trio 2

Button Twine

Seam Binding

Stickles

Pearl & Eyelet

 

...And this is how I made it...

 

 

 I die-cut all the elements as show and stamped the sentiment onto one of the tabs.

I then downloaded a template from the internet and printed it straight onto my patterned card stock.

I then cut the template out and scored and glued all the edges together.

I then put my gift in the bag and covered with tissue paper, tied the handles together with some seam binding and created a pretty bow.

I then tied the tags to the handles of the bag using the button twine and again created a bow.

Then I glued the doily and butterfly in place.

I then coloured and cut out Maya and placed her using 3D pads.
