On Friday I had no gift bags in my stash. Now it's Sunday and I have 11 of them completely finished and ready to grab and go.
Sometimes I just add die cuts to my bags, but I prefer to add dimensional elements. Not sure why, but I have always been fascinated by honeycomb tissue paper. I am guessing that when I was a little girl some of the centerpieces at my birthday party had honeycomb paper. Anyway, when I saw some fruit honeycomb pieces I knew they'd be perfect for gift bags.
I used 5" x 8" bags this time. They are a little smaller than standard bags, but were the perfect size for the fruit accents. I added a piece of layering paper to each bag to help the fruits pop out. I found some papers that have been in my stash for years that were just perfect for my project. Now I wish I had more of some of those papers, but others will work for sure.
Here are the bags.
Which bag do you like best? I like the ones with the purple grapes and the red apple.
Happy Sunday!
