Mini treat bag

I was reading the blogs that I follow this morning and Simple Stampin’ mentioned a Share Handmade Kindness challenge at Jennifer McGuire’s blog. This may be the push I need to actually send some of the cards that I have piling up. But it also coincides with me wrapping up some gifts for a Secret Pal exchange at this weekend’s upcoming crop. I got a bit carried away and I have quite a few things (and I’m short on time with an opera trip tonight and dinner out on Friday) so it’s handy to have some dies that make packaging look great quickly. Here’s some easy packaging made using the mini treat bag thinlits dies.

Stampin' Up! Mini Treat thinlits dies

I cut out the two parts of the bag using retired DSP (great use for that large pile of DSP) and glued them together using fast fuse. I then used some of the extra pieces included in the mini treat bag thinlits dies and cut the banner in garden green and the for you in real red and glued them on with tombow. I put the stickers in the bag and that gift is ready to go!

So this sort of fits in with Jennifer’s challenge, but it feels like a cheat because I was doing it anyway and I didn’t make the stickers. So I will go through my card stack and pick one out to send to someone for no reason at all.
