Sweetest Christmas Gift Bags
Making handmade greeting cards with Stampin’ Up! products is fun and satisfying, but it’s awesome there are other a lot of other projects to make. With our rubber stamps, ink, and paper, we can also create a host of small gift items and gift packaging. In today’s post, you’ll learn how to create a small gift bag with the Sweetest Christmas 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper.
With this simple design,(inspired by In the Pink Designs by Cathryn) you can use many patterned papers, stamp sets, and ribbons to create a variety of different gift bags. Fill the gift bags with chocolates and other goodies to give to neighbors, co-workers, gym buddies, book club pals, and more.

To create the pattern for the box, cut a piece of Designer Series Paper to 8 inches by 5 1/2 inches. You’ll be able to make two bags from each piece of 12 x 12 paper.
On the 8-inch side, score at: 1 1/4″, 3 3/4″, 5″, and 7 1/2″
On the 5 1/2-inch side, score at: 1 1/4″ and 4 1/4″
With your snips, trim the pieces as shown below. Also, watch the how-to video below for a visual look at how these bags come together.
Fold into a box, secure with Tear & Tape and decorate as you wish with sentiments, ribbon, and embellishments.
