The Final Days of Sale-A-Bration 2016!

Today and tomorrow are the last days of Sale-A-Bration! These are the final two days of earning free products with every qualifying order! I am sad that Sale-A-Bration is coming to end for this year, but I also truly enjoyed using all of the free products! I love the Wildflower Fields DSP (Item #141022). I wanted to showcase it one more time before it's gone.

As you know, one of my goals this year is to improve my gift packaging skills. On my last order, I purchased the Gift Bag Punch Board (Item #135862). I made seven gift bags using the Wildflower Fields DSP and the Gift Bag Punch Board!

The first gift bag is a medium sized bag. To make the folded over edge, score 1/2" or 1" from the top edge of the bag using your Scoring Board and fold it over to reveal the other side of the DSP. The bow is punched using the Bow Builder punch and Blushing Bride cardstock. A metal rimmed pearl accents the center of the bow (and on sale this week!). The bag is held closed with hook and loop tape.

The second gift bag is a large sized bag. I made a taller bag by adding two inches to the width, making the DSP dimensions 8" x 12". If your bag is too tall, the scoring lines on the Gift Bag Punch Board will not fully extend across your DSP. Just flip the DSP around, line up your scoring lines, and complete them. Or, you can use your Scoring Board to complete the scoring lines.

The bag is tied with a cotton ribbon in Island Indigo. A tag stamped with congrats from Perfect Pairings and confetti from Party Pants completes the bag. The congrats is stamped in Island Indigo ink. The confetti is stamped in Tangelo Twist and in Cucumber Crush ink.

The third bag is a medium sized bag. I added Basic Black satin ribbon handles. I added 1/2" circles to reinforce the handles. This is not structurally necessary. I thought it was a cute addition. The balloons are punched using the Balloon Bouquet punch. The sentiment is from Balloon Celebration. It is difficult to tell from the photo, but the sentiment is embossed with black embossing powder. The sentiment banner is made with the Triple Banner punch.

The fourth bag is another large sized bag, but the starting DSP dimensions are 6" x 12". This makes a slightly shorter bag. The bag is tied with a satin ribbon in Pacific Point and also holds a thank you tag. The thank you tag uses the stamp set What I Love.

The fifth bag is a small sized bag with a 1/2" folder over edge. I added satin ribbon handles in Blackberry Bliss.

The sixth bag is a medium sized bag with a 1" folded over edge. The bag is closed with a satin ribbon in Basic Black.

The seventh and final bag is a medium sized bag with a 1" folded over edge. The bag is closed with a satin ribbon in Hello Honey. The banner tag is punched using the Triple Banner Punch and stamped with a sentiment from the Perfect Pairings stamp set.

I am working on a few more gift bags and will be sharing them shortly!

The Metallics Glitter Tape was so popular that it has sold out completely and is no longer available. However, these Sale-A-Bration Products are still available as of this post.
