Hey Quietfire Fans! With November here and Christmas right around the corner, I decided I would share with you a fun gift bag perfect to put a little something in to give to a special someone in your life. By combining a variety of stamps as well as dies from A Way With Words, they were the perfect for my gift bag. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite Christmas beverage and learn how to recreate my gift bag at home.
To start, you'll need a muslin bag. Apply Fired Brick Distress Ink to the Merry Christmas Background and stamp randomly on the bag. Reapply ink to the stamp as needed. Apply Forest Moss Distress Ink to the Grid Background and stamp randomly on the bag. Reapply ink to the stamp as desired.
Die cut the Love, Joy & Peace Christmas Ornament out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the ornament. Sprinkle Acanthus Teal Modern Gilding Powder over the entire ornament. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Apply Emboss It Ink to the embossed ornament. Sprinkle Acanthus Teal Modern Gilding Powder over the entire ornament. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.
From the Flourished Christmas Minis 2, die cut the snowflake twice out of White Soft Finish Cardstock.
Die cut a 2 1/4" Stitched Circle out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the May Peace be your Gift stamp and stamp in the middle of the circle. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powder over the sentiment. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Apply Forest Moss Distress Ink to the Grid Background stamp, stamp off on a piece of paper and then stamp on the circle. Repeat the previous step until the circle is covered with a grid pattern. Ink the edges of the circle using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
From the Peace on Earth die, die cut the stars twice out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to seven of the stars. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powder over each star. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Apply Emboss It Ink to seven embossed stars. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powder over each star. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.
Adhere one snowflake to the top right side of the bag. Adhere the other snowflake to the left middle of the bag.
Adhere the stitched circle to the flourished Christmas Ornament. Use foam squares to adhere the flourished Christmas ornament to the middle of the bag, slightly overtop of the snowflakes.
To finish embellishing your gift bag, use adhesive and foam squares to adhere the stars as desired around the flourished Christmas ornament.
Here are a few closeup photos of the finished gift bag.
