Hand Stamped Bright & Bold Birthday Gift Bag. Share it on a Sunday

Good Morning Everyone,

Happy Sunday, what are you all doing today? We have a busy day of doing bits around the house and then, there's a little football match we will be watching!, How about you?

But before all of that, It's Sunday so that means we have another Share it on a Sunday for you. This week we are all hand stamping our own 'DSP'. 

I decided to pull out a lot of small images from a few stamp sets (usually ones I forget about, If i'm honest) and create a very bright and bold piece, what do you think?




As always I will take you through my tutorial, then link to Donna and Karen's blogs so you can see what they have both made as well.

Measurements

Basic White Cardstock
1pc - 11 3/4" x 6 1/4"
1pc - 1" x 3 1/2"

Coastal Cabana Card Stock

1pc - 1" x 11 3/4"

Real Red Cardstock

1pc - scrap

Take you piece of whisper white and randomly stamp the images all over in a mix of all the colours.





 Now score on the following...
Long side - 1 1/4", 5 3/4", 7" & 11 1/2"
Part score on the long side to approx 4" down at 5/8" & 6 3/8"
Short side - 5"

Fold and burnish all the score lines with a bone folder, holding the card stock horizontally, cut up all the score lines, and notch into the squares slightly. Remove the tiny rectangle from the bottom right hand corner, then notch the long thin tab top and bottom. You should be left with this..




Add tear and tape to the tab on the right hand side. The tape is wider than the tab so just fold it back on itself. Adhere this panel to the opposite edge. At the bottom, fold in the sides and the back, and adhere down the front panel to create the bag's base.

Pinch in the top and those part score lines with help it close smoothly and neatly. Create a belly band by wrapping the coastal cabana card stock strip around the top of the bag. add some liquid glue and adhere down - making sure the join is in the centre and the front.

Stamp the sentiment and cut out using the tailored tag punch, also cutting a shape in real red. cut the real red one in half and adhere to the back of the basic white one, leaving a neat and even border top and bottom. add the to the belly band over the join in the card stock below.
