This is a very simple bag to make. The sentiment is actually a journaling card from the Hand Penned Memory & More cards. I fussy cut the sentiment out and stuck it on at an angle for a little sass. You can leave the base open and store the bag flat, just sticking it when you want to use it.

Fast and Easy Christmas Bag – No Cutting Required – Painted Christmas – Merriest Moments – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I’ve made this bag a number of times. It is a great one to make as requires no cutting and minimal scoring. You can make them in a great number easily in many sizes. They store flat until you want to use them and string the ribbon through them. What more could you want from a gift bag?

The tag is hand stamped using the Merriest Moments stamp set. You can see me make a similar oversize tag on the previous blog post.

I love this little gift box. It’s something different from the usual. I made another version using the Sweet Symmetry designer series paper (DSP). This one uses the Tidings of Christmas DSP. Once you get the hang of making them they are so easy to make and replicate in bulk. The Cherry Cobbler and Gold Ribbon just makes this box really sing for Christmas don’t you think?

I love making little gift boxes and bags. I’ve made this style before but I just love how cute it looks. The binder clip closure is just something different. It also uses up my huge stash of clips. I love stationery and have a collection of different paper clips, binder clips and lots more. Sad but true.

The paper is the Harvest Meadow designer series paper (DSP) and I love these bright and joyful colours. This gift box uses Bumble Bee and Misty Moonlight. These are both primary colours and work well together.

measurements

  • Bumble Bee – 7 1/2″ X 6″ scored on:
    • 7 1/2″ side at 1/2″, 2 1/2″. 4″, 6″

Using Harvest Meadow DSP to Make a Box Bag – Dressed to Impress – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This is a bag but it has a rectangular base like a box. As the patterned paper is wrapped around the base there are no corners but rather these lovely curves instead. I’ve made this bag before earlier this year and wanted to try it again for Autumn with this Harvest Meadow designer series paper (DSP).

measurements

  • Bumble Bee Cardstock – 5″ X 4″ scored at 1″ on all sides
  • Harvest Meadow DSP – 4″ X 10 1/2″

Make a Big / Bold Birthday Gift Bag With Me

Make a Big / Bold Birthday Gift Bag With Me – Peaceful Prints DSP – Biggest Wish – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I absolutely love this bag. It is so pretty. The gorgeous sentiment is from the Biggest Wish set and is a firm favourite of mine as it makes a project on its own. The paper is actually the Peaceful Prints DSP which is a Christmas collection but as shown here not all prints have to be Christmas. I matted everything on Basic White and it really makes the whole project pop. I love using white as it makes dark colours pop and conversely black makes light colours pop too.

measurements

  • Real Red Cardstock – 11 1/2″ X 8″ score on
    • long side at 1 1/2″, 5 1/2″, 7″, 11″
    • Short side at 1 1/2″ from either side

This box looks more complicated to make than it actually is. It really is very easy. It is another of the projects we made in a recent card club in my Facebook Group. I wanted to share it with you. I am trying to expand the range of gift boxes and bags I make. So what is a girl to do for inspiration but go on Pinterest! I found this little box on there and just adapted the measurements and decoration for my tastes.

How cute are these? I struggled with the design for a cute little box for ages and then made this design my mistake and decided to stick with it. The pretty paper is from the Sweet Symmetry suite and gives this project a lovely summer vibe. I did two colour ways, Just Jude and Calypso Coral. Which do you like best?

Making a Large Gift Bag – No Cutting Needed – Hydrangea Hills – Fine Art Floral – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve made this type of bag quite a few times. It is great if you are new to paper crafting or to do with children as no cutting is required. This bag uses a full piece of 12″ X 12″ paper / cardstock and makes a good size bag. The paper I’ve used here is the Hydrangea Hills designer series paper (DSP). It is so pretty. More importantly is that it has no specific direction which is important if you don’t want part of your image to be upside down.

measurements

  • Hydrangea Hills / Fine Art Floral DSP – 12″ X 12″, scored on one side at:
    • 3″ & 9″
    • Scored on the second side at 4 1/2″ from either end
