Every year since I have started teaching card classes at Beachmere Retirement Resort we have had an all day event about this time in November.  It’s a fun day, we get together and spend the day creating some great projects for the Christmas Season.  This year I decided to decorate gift bags to hold all of the project kits for each of the ladies attending.

I stamped Whisper White card with the starry background stamp from the Star of Light stamp set using Smoky Slate ink.  I stamped the greeting from the Carols of Christmas stamp set onto the right hand side of the stamped card using Night of Navy ink.  I punched 1″, 1-1/2″ and 2″ circles from Cherry Cobbler card and embossed each of the circles using the Sparkle Embossing Folder.  I attached the embossed circles to the left hand side of the stamped Whisper White card and drew strings using the Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write Marker.  I cut Night of Navy card using the scalloped border from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies and attached a strip behind each long edge of the stamped card.  The panel is them attached to the front of the plain white gift bag.  I used some retired Gold Cord and tied bows which I attached to each of the circles using a small amount of Tombow Multipurpose glue.

I love how these turned out and the ladies appreciated the new and improved packaging for our day of crafting.

Bye for now,

Kris
