Hello Everyone, it is that time of the month again, the PTI blog hop. This month, the challenge was to create something using a brown paper bag. I have made paper bag albums in the past and have even created a paper bag program for a Women's Retreat. I wanted to keep in the theme of back to school, so I thought of a gift card holder for a teacher. I used a #2 Kraft paper bag 4 x 2 x 7 3/4.Paper: Ivory, The Paper Company and dp (unknown)
Ink: Chocolate chip and Ruby red, Stampin Up!; antique linen distress ink, Tim Holtz
Stamps: All Booked Up and It's Official, PTI
Embellishements: Twill tape, natural (JoAnn fabrics); chocolate button, PTI
Tools: Bookplate die, PTI; label die, sm, Spellbinders, 1 1/2 inch circle punch, scallop border punch, Fiskars
This size bag is perfect for making gift card holders. It was super quick and easy. I hope you enjoy your evening looking at everyone's wonderful creations. I really enjoyed playing with these two sets, I have not had a chance to play since returning from CHA.
