Sweet Treat

I thought I'd share the little envelope bag that I made,just the right size to put a couple of chocolate lollies in to give to my boss' granddaughter.

I can't remember where I saw the idea of making an envelope into a gift bag but it is so very easy to do,just involves sealing an envelope,cutting off an edge and scoring around three sides an equal amount to give the depth of the bag. I also scored 2cm down from the trimmed edge to fold into the top and to reinforce the edge so that there is enough strength to thread the ribbon through. I decorated the front and back using Dovecraft papers,die cuts and Meljen's freebie image coloured using Copics.

I threaded bells onto the velvet ribbon before threading it through the punched holes.

I'm using this for the following challenges:-

Stampavie 121,Make a gift,

DDCC93,Winter,

Creative Card Crew,Anything goes,

Fussy and Fancy Friday,Show us some snow,

Hanna And Friends 75,Just a little Christmas,
