Simple Envelope Gift Bag

Hi All,

Today I am sharing with you a tutorial I posted to Crafty Sentiments Designs Inspirational Blog. Here is a tutorial for you on how to make a simple small gift bag for little treats or little gift items. Grab your cup of tea, coffee, or soda cause there are a lot of pictures. So sit back and relax.

I made this little gift bag for Valentine's Day. I learned of this idea years ago from a Stamp'in Up event. It really works for any occasion and with any type of envelope.

Supplies needed:

Stamp - Crafty Sentiments - I used Annabel- Elegance from Crafty Sentiments Designs shop
Any size envelope (Depending on the size of envelope - using a larger size you will need to increase the score marks from 1/2 inch to 1 inch.
Scoring tools
Decorative edge/border punches, dies or scissors
Inks, markers or colored pencils
Any type of embellishments you want to use
Note: I used Ribbon for my handle and attached with small brads on the sides. You can use anything you would like to make your handle. :D

Here's the Tutorial:
