Gift Bag

This tiny, little gift bag was a big hit at my last workshop. It measures only 3-1/2" high and 1-3/4" wide but would be perfect for gifts like jewelry, chocolate covered coffee beans or money!! I used a sheet of baked brown sugar from the 2013-2015 In Color Collection DS Paper Pack ($21.95).

The flower was made with the Big Shot Originals Spiral Flower Die ($17.95)

Closed with 1-1/4" Burlap Ribbon ($7.95) and a Mini Metallic Clothespin ($3.95)
