IT'S PEACH WEEK!!! PROJECT #2- PEACHY GIFT BAG featuring the YOU'RE A PEACH SUITE

 

I'm back again for PEACH WEEK!  Today my project is 3-D.  This beautiful gift bag is easy to make and is large enough to hold lots of goodies.  You can make two of these bags with one sheet of DSP.  Let's talk about the products I used for this projects.  First, I used a sheet of the amazing DSP.  There are so many beautiful choices for this bag.  I also used the YOU'RE A PEACH BUNDLE to create the tag on the front.  To tie up the bag, I used the PALE PAPAYA AND WHITE RIBBON.

1)To make the base of the gift bag, cut a piece of CALYPSO CORAL card stock measuring 3-1/2in by 3-1/2in.  Score each side at 1/2in.  Cut the square to create flaps and adhere to make open box.

2)Cut a piece of DSP at 6in by 11in and adhere a coordinating strip of DSP cut at 1-1/2in by 11in along the top of the larger piece of DSP.  Place TEAR & TAPE along the bottom of the inside of the large piece of DSP and one of the sides.  Wrap the panel around the base you created and carefully adhere it together.

3)Using a circle punch, create the handles of the bag and tie the bag closed with a piece of PALE PAPAYA AND WHITE WOVEN RIBBON. 

4)Stamp the peach image using PALE PAPAYA INK on a scrap of BASIC WHITE card stock. Before stamping, use a SPONGE DAUBER to apply CALYPSO CORAL on one edge.  Stamp the leaf image using PEAR PIZZAZZ INK.  Cut out the images using the coordinating dies. 

5)Stamp the sentiments on the 3-1/8in by 2in scalloped rectangle from the STITCHED SO SWEETLY DIES.  Use CALYPSO CORAL INK for the THANKS FOR BEING AS sentiment and PEAR PIZZAZZ for the SWEET AS A PEACH sentiment. Adhere the peach and stem image on the scalloped rectangle using DIMENSIONALS.  Adhere the scalloped rectangle to the gift bag with DIMENSIONALS as well.  

Check out the video below to see how the gift bag comes together.
