Gingerbread Gift Bag

Hello

welcome to my little crafting place! 

It's Spellbinders Club time again, and we're still having fun with 'Christmas in July' crafting. This time I've made a gift bag, and used the Gingerbread man Deluxe Caboodle club gift to make a tag to decorate it

 

The actual gift bag is made from a sheet of A4 80gsm card printed with one of the designs from my ever-increasing collection of digital downloads. The bag is about 15cms high, 10cms across and about 4cms deep, so a good size for a smallgift, like a bag of nice chocolates or a set of mini toiletries etc

For the tag I cut the middlesized scalloped circle from Scallop Journal Cards and trimmed to leave 5 scallops and a bit of extra card to stick to the back of a simple rectangle. At the lower edge I added a cut-down piece from one of the borders in the  Stitch & Dots Scallop Borders set. I used ribbon to conceal the joins

The gingerbread man is made the same way as on an earlier post, and I added candy canes from the July Small Die of the Monthand the little hat from last month's Walrus set (I punched a circle to use for the bobble)) and added a spring 'wobbler' between him and the tag base

  Hello!

Once again playing catch-up. today I'm sharing a tag which I made for Dawn's Daring Cardmakers' challenge a couple of weeks ago but failed to blog.

I'm not the greatest fan of making tags - I do like to see what other people make, but I'm [retty much always disappointed in those I make myself!  You can Click here to see what our fab Design Team made for this challenge

As it happened I had a rose I'd made a while ago sitting on my desk along with some other bits and pieces I was using for another project, so I was able to cobble a tag together without too much stress!

Info

Red card cut into a tag shape

White card stamped with a Spellbinders large 'Love' stamp

Red glitter paper heart was leftover from another project as was the rose (made with red Bazzill card) 

The sentiment and entwined hearts were die cut using a very old Cuttlebug plate

The tag was completed using some lovely red satin ribbon

  That's it for this time, Thank You so much for coming by, please don't go without leaving a little message as I do love to know what you think.

 

 Happy Crafting, Stay Safe,
