Purrfect Stamper Demonstrator Team OnStage Goodie Bags

 
To celebrate my demonstrator team, I made OnStage goody bags for my team members that attended OnStage! Inside each of my team members' bags, I put an assortment of treats and convention essentials.

The hand sanitizer and the tissues are for cleaning ink off our hands. The notebook and the diamond-topped pen are to take notes on all of the new and exciting products. We all need a little bling! The cat sticky tabs are to mark our favorite stamp sets in the catalog. The gummies are in case we need a snack. We had cat ear headbands for a fun way to celebrate our team name.

I used the Layering Oval Framelits, shrink paper, and Calypso Coral Nature's Twine to create embellishments for our Craft and Carry totes, so we could tell them apart from everyone else's totes.

First, I die cut the second largest oval framelit and the second largest scalloped oval framelit from a sheet of white shrink paper.

Then I stamped the cat and the bow images with Staz On ink in the center of the oval die cut. I let the ink dry before coloring it in with Stampin' Blends. To make sure the images stayed on the shrink paper after baking, I used permanent ink and alcohol markers. Staz On and Stampin' Blends are both alcohol based, so they attract and blend into each other. I was careful to avoid touching the Staz On with the Stampin' Blends. Whatever areas did touch, I used a permanent black marker to redraw the lines. It sounds more cumbersome than it actually was.

For the scalloped oval die cut, I colored the entire oval with a Light Bermuda Bay Stampin' Blend. Once the ink was dry, I punched 1/4" holes at the tops of each of the die cuts. Then I baked them in the oven.

Once the shrink paper was cool, I adhered the oval die cut to the scalloped oval die cut with strong glue. I used E6000 but Tombow liquid glue may also work. I placed each of the tags under a heavy weight while they dried to ensure a flat tag.

For the tassels, I wound Calypso Coral Nature's Twine around a 3" x 3" piece of cardstock, slid off the loops, and glued one end into a silver tassel cap I purchased online. I tied a scrap of the same twine in a knot around the loops immediately below the tassel cap and pushed that into the tassel cap to keep the loops together. I left the glue dry before cutting and trimming the other end of the tassel loops.

One of the ladies on my team loves dogs, so I made her a special dog embellishment tag.

I added a jump ring to the top of the tassel cap and threaded both the tassel cap and the cat/dog embellishment tag onto a ball chain.

EDIT: These goody bags were a huge hit! I am so glad my team enjoyed their goody bags!
