Small Christmas Greeting Bags

Hi there! I have been looking in my photo folders again, and this time I want to show you a couple of projects I made for the Magnolia Ink magazine A Christmas Story from 2012.

The bags are made with a die from Tim Holtz called "In the bag". 

Great to use for small, sweet gifts:)

I have used several of stamps for this project. 

And on the bag with the tags, I have also used a stamp to decorate the bag.

Here are the stamps used:

Christmas Tilda with Cat (Little Christmas Collection 2012), Tilda With Snow Heart (mini), Sweet Snowflakes (Sweet Christmas Dreams 2011), Christmas Background, Post-Vintage Merry (So Jolly & Under the Mistletoe 2009). Poststamp-Kort & Godt.

The bags are made with Kraft card stock and sheets from an old book.

Embellishments used: twine, cheese cloth, seem binding ribbon, charms, hinge clips-Tim Holtz.

Dies from Magnolia used (Doo Hickey's): Leaf & Swirl, Bloomy Tag.

I have put in some chocolate hearts inside the bags.

The images are coloured with Distress Ink, Re-inkers and Markers. I have also used clear embossing, white gesso, Star Dust-Stickles. 

You can also see this post in my Magnolia blog.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog, 

and I will be back tomorrow with another Christmas project for the A Christmas Story issue. 

Take care xx
