This evening we get two for the price of one – so to speak. Deb is sharing some gift packaging ideas today. She created a fun gift bag and a gift card holder, both using items from the same collection – Sleigh Bells Ring by My Mind’s Eye. She made use of the 6×6 paper pad, the tag package, the paper bow package (FUN!) and the washi tape. Using coordinated items sure makes things go so quickly! You don’t have to do a whole lot of thinking as you KNOW everything matches and works together. It simplifies everything. Take a look:

Let’s start with the gift bag. Isn’t this fun!

You can find Deb’s post on her blog here.

Deb pieced together paper from the 6×6 pad and, yes, the large JOY is a sheet in the pad, she applied the washi tape along the top and bottom, hung a tag on the handle and topped it all off with a Grosgrain Stripe bow.

Ribbon: May Arts 1.5″ Grosgrain Stripe Ribbon – Burgundy

Adhesives: Scor Tape

And here’s the gift card holder. It opens at the “Do Not Open” line, to reveal the pocket.

That lovely bow is pre-cut and one of may in the Bow package.

A Velcro sticky back coin is used as the closure for the gift card.
