Extra Large Friend Bag

I have a special friend I want to give a little gift to.
This bag made with the Gift Bag Punch Board will be perfect.
Large Gift BagThis bag is bigger than the large bag that the directions are for.
We used two 8" x 8" pieces of cardstock to create this bag.
I added Go Wild Designer Paper to the front — Black & Tip Top Taupe hearts on the bottom and Vanilla and Tip Top Taupe hearts on the top.
I punched holes in the top using the 1/4" handheld punch and tied the bag shut with a piece of the Tip Top Taupe Lace.  I think it finished the bag off just right.

Gift Bag Punch Board Gift Card Holder

Have you tried out the new Gift Bag Punch Board yet??
It's kind of fun. 
You have to play a couple of times with scrap paper but it's really quite easy to use.Note HolderThis was one project we did at my Tools of the Trade Class.
I know, it doesn't look like a bag at all.
This card would be perfect to put a gift card inside.
We used the Gift Bag Punch Board to round the corners in the back just a bit.
We used the English Garden designer paper for the "envelope" of the card.

Happy Hello

I have one last Garden in Bloom sample for you (for now — you know I will be using it lots more in the future).
Flowers & Bee HelloThis card was fun.  They all loved the color combination.
The base is Delightful Dijon with a layer of Early Espresso.
We stamped "A Happy Hello" from the Tin of Cards stamp set (you all need this stamp set) with Early Espresso ink.  Stamp the bee (he is adorable) with Early Espresso ink too.  Next we stamped the flower outline and then the flower petals with Delightful Dijon ink stamped off.  Don't forget to stamp the extra inside petals with full strenght Delightful Dijon ink.  The stem and leaves outline was stamped with Old Olive ink.
The inside of the leaves was stamped with Old Olive stamped off.
You really could whip out a bunch of these cards with many different sentiments in no time at all.
