Handmade Gift Bag


These  bag in box projects  a have been around for  years but I have never got round to making one now. 

I was reminded of them when I came across a fellow demonstrators website last week and found she had made a  great video tutorial on making them.
So I decided it was now or never.

I used  Stampin' Ups  designer series paper and the plain card stock in  the colour  Blushing Bride.

I wasn't too keen on this colour when it first came out but it has grown on me big time. 
So be warned there could be many post in this colour.

This bag is so easy to make it's unreal.

If you want to make this bag yourself hop over to Crafty Hallets  website.  and watch Carolines video.

here 's the link to the tutorial.

My bag looks taller than Caroline's,  but  it was made to the measurements  she gives in her tutorial.

Hi, I left a note on stampin connection too for you! BEAUTIFUL purse. Your handles...are they 1/2 wide and then used a round corner of them? I LOVE your bag...so elegant. And that other bag you made was pretty spectacular too! My email is lucia_rosz@yahoo.com. Thanks a bunch! Have a great Sunday! ~Lucy
