The bag above is Coastal Cabana and Pretty Peacock, and below is Old Olive and Calypso Coral. Which do you prefer? The first bag I made had a pointed flap as above but when I made the second one I forgot to make a point and did a normal flap. You can tell me which flap shape you like best.

The closure is velcro dots, you can easily use magnets of course. I like to change it up though and do things differently. It makes life a little more interesting.

I first made this bag with my card club ladies last year and it was a hit. I decided to do another one with this gorgeous designer series paper (DSP), Countryside Inn. This paper is all about the blues and I love it. I only bought one pack but am definitely getting another one soon as I can see myself using it again and again. I love blues if you can’t tell.

This bag is actually super easy to make. I enclose a template below. The top has a little magnetic closure though you could also you a velcro fastening as well.

Baby Sized No Cut Gift Bag – Regency Park – Easter Bunny – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I have made quite a few of these no-cut gift bags over the years. I was talking with a customer recently and she reminded me of when I first made this bag. It was at a Guider’s Day about 10 years ago and we made a version of this bag with a set of little cards. That time I hand-stamped my paper, this time I used designer series paper (DSP). It’s called Regency Park.

This bag is super easy to make as there is not cutting or glueing needed to make it. You just score and fold

I love the cute little bunny on this Easter basket. This basket is actually just an open box with a handle. I did use a scallop die around the edge on my first sample but I just didn’t like the look. It would be better to use an edge punch. I used a retired one on my second sample.

I haven’t a clue where I got the easter eggs for this basket. You should never eat the chocolates and sweets that live in my craft room as they have all been there for years. i use them time and time again for my projects.

This is such an easy bag to make. I wanted to show that just changing something small can totally change the look of your finished item. Here I’ve changed the closure mechanism. The first one is a ribbon closure and the second one has handles. It totally changes the look of the bag.

You can see both bags below. Which one do you prefer?

How to Construct a Fold Flat Bag

How to Construct a Fold Flat Bag – Dandy Designs – Flowers of Friendship – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

This little bag folds flat for easy storage. We made this in a recent card club and I wanted to share it with you as well. I used the Dandy Designs designer series paper (DSP) that I got free during sale-a-bration. I love the bright and vibrant colours in this paper pack. You get 48 sheets in a pack so you won’t run out anytime soon.

These fat-bottomed gift bags are easy to make. This one has a magnetic closure. The magnets are hidden behind the patterned paper. I’ve used a sentiment on the front but you could equally stamp a name and use these as place markers at the table. They would be lovely with some homemade fudge as a goodie bag as well.
