Dressing Up a Gift

Hi there

Don't you love receiving a prettily packaged gift?  When you are giving a small gift, adding some pretty packaging makes it look special.  The 'Tag a Bag' Gift Bags are a wonderful starting point for packaging small gifts.  They are actually a really good size (12.7 x 21cm) and the neutral colour with the white chevron print gives them a contemporary look. The white base of the Designer Series Paper Stacks means that almost any colour you choose will look great with them. You get 10 bags in a pack for $6.95, so they are a great option for party favours as well.

I have 2 colour ways to show you, both of them favourites. The card stock topper has been trimmed with the Large Scallop Edgelit and some coordinating Designer paper added on a band of white to provide contrast. Underneath I have attached a doily and a banner cut with the fabulous new 'Banners' Framelits and a piece of burlap ribbon to pick up the Crumb Cake tone in the bag.  The double flower from the 'Flower Shop' stamp set  is finished with a button and linen thread.  Here is the Melon Mambo version.

This is the Coastal Cabana version. I added some little pearls on to the scalloped edge of this one.

Thanks for looking!
