It's in the Bag!

Happy Friday, Girls!

And what a happy day indeed.
Because today is the grand opening of my brand new ETSY shoppe: It's in the Bag!

ItsInTheBagETSYHeader

The shoppe features all the cute little bags needed to present heartfelt & handcrafted gifts in a special way. To start, I've got 3 different sizes of glassine bags, 2 different sizes of white paper bags, and 2 colored paper bags. And because I'm not out to be a millionaire *yet - wink*, you'll find that my prices are competitive and in some cases lower than what you'll find elsewhere.

So up for today I've got my fun glassine bags that I've personalized for gift giving.

Small glassine bag embellished with some Prima chipboard, a lil' white tag, some of that lush seam binding, and finished off with buttons. This size is perfect for gift cards. Sure you can give your gift card in the store envelope, but why not personalize the gift a bit?

Medium glassine bag embellished with a busy piece of patterned paper from Prima, a button, and some fun alphabet stickers. This size is perfect for giving tickets, however it does widen up so you can put thicker things in it as well. I'll have more ideas soon.

Large glassine bag was made in a jiffy as I repurposed a cardfront from this adorable card that Danni sent me. A square cardfront works perfectly on this bag - adhered it, added some pretty ribbon to the top and we're done! Who knew that a card would be the gift that keeps on giving?!

Hope you'll come check out my shoppe. I'll be sharing more ideas for these and my other bags in the near future.

TGIF!
