Gift Bags by Steffi Ried

With Mother's Day just two days away, have you figured out what to get the special women in your life to say thanks for everything?! Have no fear if you've been procrastinating, designer Steffi Ried is here today to share an easy peasy tutorial that will dress up your gifts in no time!

Are you looking forward to Mother's Day? It is important to me that I give my mom a little sweetness on this day. We usually spend the day together. This year I would like to give her a photo. This should be packed in a nice bag. For that I tried the great punch board from WeR Memory Keepers. This makes great gift bags of different sizes. These I decorated and created a few extra pendants!

First I created the bags with the punch board. It was easy and fast. I immediately created a few more bags to give away, a small supply, because the next birthday will be here soon, haha.

On a bag I added small flowers. This gives the bag a nice 3D effect. At the top end I have attached with a Paperclip a flower Die Cut and Chipboard Sticker “Love You”.

And this is how the finished bag looks with the flowers!

Next comes the smallest bag. This is perfect for small gifts such as a gift voucher. In addition, I have created a little pendant from Oh My Heart.

For the last bag I hung a purse on the ribbon. Do you see the mistake? I punched the paper upside down, oops! Well, that is not so bad. And I hope my mom does not mind ;)

Lastly, I decorated a paper clip with embellishments so it is ready to go for my next bag.

I wish you a beautiful Mother's Day!

I feel like I'm always on the hunt for the perfect gift bag - now I realize I don't have to buy them, I can just make them with scrapbooking supplies I already have on hand! Thank you for the inspiration Steffi!
