Heartfelt Thanks Gift Card Bag by Tessa


Hello!  It's Tessa Wise sharing with you today.  I give gift cards often as gifts and sometimes want to give a little something extra along with it.  I've created a treat bag with a gift card pocket attached just for those times.

I started with the pretty Embossed Chevron Kraft 5"x7.5" treat bag and stuffed it with a little goodie.  I folded over the top of the bag and adhered it down.  I added a strip of patterned paper from the Switch Board 6x6 pad by Pink Paislee and then wrapped it with Mandarin Baker's Twine.  I tied it in a bow to the left and added some staples to each  side to keep it in place.

I pulled out a 2 3/4"x4 1/4" Flat Glassine Bag next and stuffed my gift card into it.   I adhered it to the center of the Embossed Kraft treat bag, tucking the top of it under the flap.  I added the sentiment from the Sentiment/ Thank You Sticker Sheet to the center of the Glassine Bag along with a couple of diecut hearts just above it.

This one was so fun to make!  I love the look of the embossed bags and will definitely be remaking a few of these at Christmastime!
