Christmas Goodie/Gift Bags

Every year, come the week before Winter Break, I find myself scrambling for teacher gifts for the boys’ teachers. This year, I am determined to help alleviate some of the December Craziness by attempting to get things done early. I immediately fell in love with the me & my BIG ideas Christmas stickers the second I saw them. I grabbed a few Pocket Pages cards, a piece of green card stock, a couple of Whisker Graphics bags and started to shuffle things around. Within in minutes, I had things organized for the makings of four gift bags:
A little bit of the process: I like to always get all my goods out to see what I have to work with. I grab all the things I think will coordinate or might work:

I narrow down the pieces I want to use. I had my eye on the felt Christmas tree. For these bags, I kept is super simple. One colored piece of card stock + one Pocket Page journal card = 2 layers, with the exception of the one “TODAY” card where the word itself served as a fun layer.

Adhere background piece, adhere journal card to top. Stick tree on. Star sticker on top. Word sticker on side for some added dimension. Tie twine. Done.

Four completed Christmas gift bags in less than an hour. If only the gift buying were as easy.
