Remember those little gift card holders? I sent them to school today with the boys for their teachers.... nothing like the last minute. I've KNOWN forever that today is the last day of school, but do you think I could get it done BEFORE? Story of my life.
Anyway, I got these cute little bags at Walmart. I made some fronts with card stock and the Petals & Paisley Designer Series Paper (sewed together, because I CAN SEW!), and adhered them to the front and the back. Then, used the Word Window punch to punch a slot all the way through the bag to hold the book mark. Added some ribbon to the handle and some chocolate to the inside and DONE. I know I could have made them MORE cute with more stamping or decorations on the front, but I just didn't have the time. I still think they turned out okay and the boys were thrilled to take them to their teachers this morning. Sorry about the photo... it was dark this morning. I was waiting for the clippies to try overnight.
I can't believe another school year is over. Next year, my oldest will go to HIGH SCHOOL, my twins will head to the middle school for fifth grade and Averie will go to Kindergarten for half a day... every day! WOW..... they grow up WAY too fast don't they?
I hope you all have a super day... thanks for stopping by! Now to work on swaps! I'll be working up to the last minute on those too... you watch. LOL

Your Killin' Me Cambria! I was going to email you to ask you what envelopes these gift card holders would fit in. A bag for the gift card holder. You're the best. Too cute!

These are really cute!! And yes, they do grow up fast - I am taking my oldest to Annapolis in two weeks where he will start his Freshman year of COLLEGE at the Naval Academy - YIKES!
Wow what a great idea. I just bought 16 bags to use for gifts. Into my BOS. These bags are just adorable the way they are. TFS
I bet the teachers were thrilled with these - they look perfect. I'm the same way making gifts the night before - don't beat yourself up. You did a fantastic job. Thanks for sharing all your great work.

These bags are AWESOME! I love the word window punch detail! The huge paper clip is awesome, too!
These are borky! They don't need lots of stamping...they are perfect as they are.
Wow! Those are so cute! I can definitly use that idea. Yes, they grow up so quickly. I have 3 sons ages 17, 18, 19 and the youngest starts his senior year in August. They are a blessing.
Thanks for sharing your incredible work.
Your bags and clippies are really cute! I know what you mean about waiting for the last minute, but you sure can't tell with this project!
Those kids are growing up too fast, I agree!
