Merry Little Treat Bag

Christmas Tag for a Treat Bag or Card

Today I have a little treat bag for you that we made last week at our Holiday Crafting Open House. We're lovin' the new Stampin' Up! Copper Embossing Powder and Holiday Catalog!

• Cut a 2” x 3.5” piece of Whisper White regular or thick card stock with the Paper Trimmer.
• Punch one end of the tag with the Scallop Tag Topper punch.
• Stamp the ‘Merry’ sentiment from the Jar of Cheer stamp set in the middle at the bottom of the tag in Cherry Cobbler ink.
• Stamp the Solid Xmas tree shape stamp in Mint Macaron about ½” above the “e” in Merry, and let it dry.
• Rub over the tag with the Embossing buddy.
• Use the Xmas tree branches stamp & Versamark ink to stamp the tree branches over the mint macraon background you just stamped.
• Cover the Versamark image with Copper embossing powder. Tap off any extra powder.
• Heat the embossing powder with the teat tool until the powder melts. Do not overheat!
• Stamp the small star in Cherry Cobbler at the top of the tree.
• Tie a 6” piece of 5/8” Organza ribbon through the hole at the top of the tag.
• Fold the top of the polka dot gift bag back along the score line.
• Attach the tag with 2 Stampin’ Dimensionals to the green banner that has been cut using the Big Shot and Banner Framelits dies.
• Add the banner to the bag with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

NOTE: The polka dot bags have been discontinued, but there are Kraft and Glassine bags on p.176 in the Annual Catalog that could be decorated and used instead. The tag could also be used on a card front.
