We celebrated three birthdays today - my sister, my son, and my son-in-law - and since I didn't want to just stick their gift cards in the card envelopes, I got a brilliant last minute idea to make gift bags for them. I found this easy tutorial at Jan's Stamping Creations
here. For the price of two 12 x 12 sheets of designer paper and some ribbon I had on hand, I ended up spending much less on them than store bought gift bags. Plus, they were much more personalized! Next time I will make some much earlier so I can embellish them more! The only problem I had was working the Crop-O-dile again after a few years of non-use - otherwise they were a cinch to make!
TFL!

ReplyDeleteDoing some catching up....these are way cute Gerlinde! How utterly personal and professional looking! Hmm, got to question your economical comment though...looks like they eat up a lot of redline tape though LOL! Totally worth the personal touch though! Great project - TFS!!
