Embellished Gift Bag for a Bestie!

I designed this gift bag for my best friend. She has always been so kind to and supportive of me that I thought I would buy her a present and make a custom gift bag too!

Instead of using the Gift Bag Punch Board to punch holes around the top edge of the gift bag, Before assembling the bag, I punched two Classic Labels for handles and added two rows of cross-stitching across the top of the bag. The cross-stitching is from a thinlit included in the Stitched Labels Framelit set.

The flowers in the vase are stamped in Blushing Bride ink directly on the bag. The flower stems are then traced with a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker for a two-toned effect.

The baker's twine comes from the August 2018 Paper Pumpkin Kit.

This gift bag came together so easily using the Gift Bag Punch Board! Check out this quick video on how to use the punch board and assemble your gift bag!


I added a pair of flamingo earrings in the gift bag. My bestie loves all things flamingo! I hope she likes her gift and her gift bag! Have you tried the Gift Bag Punch Board? I would love to see what you create! Post a photograph of your Gift Bag Punch Board project on my Facebook Page today!

You can find the measurements and a supply list at the end of this post.

Thanks for stopping by!
