BUTTERFLY KISSES GIFT CARD BAGS | with Kathy

Sometimes I think that spring time is even busier than the holiday season!  With Mother's Day, lots of family birthdays, graduations, end of year activities, it seems like I always need a little gift, and gift cards can be a life saver!  Whenever I give a gift card, I like to package it up in something pretty... so to prepare for this season I created a few gift card bags using the Butterfly Kisses Collection.  Take a peek...

To create the bag shape, I used a goodie bag die from my collection.  I cut them from a few different 12 x 12 papers from the collection.  I then set out to decorate them all using flowers and butterflies from the bits & pieces pack.

For the first bag, I used the bubblegum colored side of the Butterfly Kisses paper for the bag.  In addition to the bits & pieces I also used a butterfly from the bitty bugs shaped sprinkles.  I created a tag using the all occasion large tags doodle cuts and added a puffy word sticker for my sentiment.  I tied it on with some limeade doodle twine.

The base of my second bag was made using the garden gingham as my base.  I added bits & pieces and some flowers from the flower garden shaped sprinkles.  It's tied together with some bubblegum doodle twine.

My last bag was made using the coral side of the mushroom meadows paper.  It's decorated with Bits & pieces and a cute little butterfly from the butterfly kisses shaped sprinkles.  I topped it off with some coral doodle twine.

I love that these bags are a good size to hold a gift card, and a few sweet treats.  They would also make good favor bags for a party!  That's it for me today, thank you for stopping by to peek!
