Male Gift Bag

Good Morning Crafters
  
Today Gill's project is for that man in your life.
 
Everyone has difficulty buying for men and then there is the matter of how it is wrapped. Just because it is a man doesn't mean they shouldn't have a fabulously wrapped gift. Here is an idea of how to make a basic gift bag into a fabulous gift bag.
All the products I have used other than the basic gift bag are from Personal Impressions and you can find stockists on their website.
 
You will need the following for this project:
 
Vintage Lane Die Cut Block
Memento Ink - Paris Dusk
(yes this is all I needed)

 


Step 1
 
Pop out the background papers and ink the edges.
Inking the edges makes the backgrounds 'pop'
 
Step 2
Stick the background papers to the bag using double sided tape or glue from your basic stash
 
Step 3

Pop out all the elements of the decoupage and ink the edges of the smaller die cut pieces.
Decoupage the main image using gel glue or double sided sticky pads
 
 
The finished bag complete with a tag made for the suggestion picture on the die cut sheet
Yes it is that simple to show the man in your life you care
 

 
The Vintage Line Die Cut Block is one of the best samples I have ever worked with. There are so many possibilities for lovely craft makes.
 
Thank you for stopping by Today!
