It is Friday and time for Unity- Friends with Flair. I needed a treat bag for some teachers as a little Easter gift and I saw this little bag made with SU! top note die (Chic n scratch, Angie Kennedy Juda). I do not own that die so I used Spellbinders Labels eight (the second largest die in this set). I cut two pieces of white cardstock for each bag. I used Feel the Joy, Itty Bitty by Unity. I stamped in Versa mark ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. I then inked the panel with tumbled glass and vintage photo, Distress Inks. I used Spellbinder classic oval (smallest for most, second smallest for one with larger hole). I attached to small lunch sacks which I purchased in bulk from Sam's Club (about 500 sacks for roughly $ 6.00) I use them for all kinds of craft projects.

| Front of gift bag. Stamps: Feel the Joy, Unity Inks: Versa mark; tumbled glass, vintage photo, Distress ink brown ribbon purchased at holidays from Sam's Club (problem with ribbon ends fraying) |

| Back of bag. I dry embossed with Sizzix Basic Gray branches folder and inked with tumbled glass and vintage photo. I forgot to take a photo of back and had already taken down my portable light studio, look at difference in lighting. Love my photo studio in a box. DH purchased it for me for Christmas. |

| All four boxes. Each with their own handmade character. One has a larger oval handle (thought it was too big, could see the treats so I went down to the smallest oval size). One of the ovals slighly off center (shifted in Big Shot). One ribbon cut with notched ends (ribbon frayed too much). Overall I liked the end result of these little gift bags and would try it again. I think the teachers will love them and of course the chocolate within them. Have a great weekend and thanks for looking. |
