PEEK A BOO GIFT BAG featuring the PATTERN PARTY DSP and the PIERCED BLOOMS DIES

 

Hey Stampers!!  Just wanted to let you know about a HIDDEN GEM in the new Annual Catalog.  It's the PATTERN PARTY  Designer Series Paper.  It's amazing.  It's in the back of the catalog in the HOST & EARN section.  If you have a party or an individual order of $150 or more, you can pick up this pack of 42 sheets of beautiful DSP for only $18.  There are 12 designs in the stack.

I was inspired to make these bags after watching a video by POOTLES.  I then wanted to take it a step further and make one bag with the card stock on the front and one with the DSP on the front.

To decorate the bags, I used a favorite die set of mine- PIERCED BLOOMS.

Start with a piece of GRANNY APPLE GREEN card stock, cut at 4in by 11in.  Score on the LONG side at 4-1/2in and 6-1/2in. For the sides, cut two pieces of DSP at 5in by 3in, scoring on three sides at 1/2in (DO NOT score on the short side that will be at the top of the bag).  The video below shows how the bag comes together.  At the end of the video, I give tips about how to make the same bag with DSP on the front and card stock on the sides.

For the embellishments on the front of the bag, I used a BASIC WHITE card stock label from the PIERCED BLOOMS DIES.  The sentiment is stamped in MEMENTO BLACK using the FRIENDS ARE LIKE SEASHELLS stamp set.  Love the font.

I then used BALMY BLUE, DAFFODIL DELIGHT and POLISHED PINK card stock and die cut one of each color of the tiny flower.  I then used MOSSY MEADOW card stock for the leaves.  The centers of the flowers are the PLAYING WITH PATTERNS RESIN DOTS.  So cute.  If you are inspired to make this project, click below for a PDF Tutorial.
