Graduation Invite & Favor by Corri


Corri Garza has created a graduation invitation and favor bag in the colors of the local high school, orange and black.  Left over Halloween papers came in handy for this project! 

Corri used her Cameo to cut this gate fold card but replaced the graduation cap in the file with a starburst and then popped a SRM Graduation Stickers by the Dozen image on it. The 2014 sticker is from SRM's 2014 Year of Memories sheet.

She added an invitation sticker for the interior of her card from SRM's We've Got Your Invite and used some clear sticker sentiment words from Express Yourself Graduation.

For her favor bag Corri used a SRM Glassine Bag and cut a graduation cap from SRM's new Vinyl using Black for the cap and Orange for the tassel.  She topped the bag off with a Thank You clear sticker from Stickers by the Dozen Thank You and orange and black solid twine.  How fun and festive!

Baby Shower Favors by Roberta


Roberta Rosi has created a wonderful baby shower for us today using SRM's new clear bags measuring 8" x 1", the new Take 2 Baby Stickers and some solid yellow twine.  Delicious! 

First, Roberta put some candies in the new transparent bags and decorated them with a big bow of white paper, a tag created by attaching the new baby stickers to white card stock and then tucking the tag under the bow with a piece of yellow twine.  Perfection!

Party Treats by Latrice

When Latrice Murphy received her new SRM Muslin Bags she knew that she needed to play!  And what a darling trio of party treats she created! 

SRM Stickers Blog - Party Treats by Latrice - #muslin #bags #stickers #borders #pillow box

First, Latrice used some stamps to give her Muslin Bag a fun little background and to add texture to it.  She then added some enamel dots and a "wish" sticker and a birthday border sticker too!

She then placed a large Cupcake sticker on card stock, punched it out and added it to her bag.  Love the wooden "Hip Hooray!" embellishment!  So fun!

Doily Cards by Angélique


When Angélique Jarrier saw the new doilies from SRM she saw beautiful cards in her future.  And she saw them teamed with some lovely SRM Stickers!  

First she created a beautiful card that's perfect for a wedding thank you note.  Using a 5 3/4" x 7 3/4" glassine bag embossed Flourish from SRM, Angélique  inked it and punched a pretty border.  She added the FOREVER sticker from SRM's Forever We've Got Your Sticker along with one of the images, a pretty bouquet of roses.

SRM Stickers Blog - Doily Cards by Angélique - #card #love #wedding #stickers #glassine bags #embossed

Angélique covered the bottom of her embossed and inked SRM Glassine bag, with some pretty paper.  She then added a doily on top of the papers and added a sticker mounted on cardstock to the middle of the doily.  Beautiful!

SRM Stickers Blog - Doily Cards by Angélique - #card #love #wedding #stickers #glassine bags #embossed

She created a beautiful card for the inside as well also using a doily and more of the We've Got Your Sticker sentiment, including a white one.  And in the center, she used a Fancy Thank You Sticker Sentiment.

What a pretty pair!

Using the same formula, Angélique created her second card, this time a birthday card using SRM's Fancy Birthday Sticker Sentiments and Sticker Stitches.

And for the card, Angélique used not only Fancy Sticker Sentiments but also some Black Sticker Stitches that go up the sides of the patterned paper panel.

Baby Bag & Card by Lesley


Lesley Croghan got a chance to play with a new SRM Burlap Bag and she LOVES that she could use some of the large brads that she has in her stash.  She created a baby tag to go on the bag and stuck the brad through the burlap fabric, securing the tag on the inside!  

SRM Stickers Blog - Baby Bag & Card by Lesley - #burlap #bag #baby #stickers #borders #tag #twine

She then created a coordinated card using the same tag, images, borders and brads.

Peppermint Hot Chocolate Gift Bag by Michelle


Here's a warm and cozy idea from Michelle Giraud that can double as a Valentine treat!  

Michelle loves her new Burlap Bags from SRM and decided to create a pocketed burlap gift bag by taking the smaller bag, turning it inside out, then hand sewing it to the center of the larger bag.  Brilliant!  

SRM Stickers Blog - Peppermint Hot Chocolate Gift Bag by Michelle - #burlap #bag #doilies #labels #stickers #tubes #valentine #chocolate #peppermint

She flipped down the front flap, so once sewn around all edges it forms 3 pockets. 

SRM Stickers Blog - Peppermint Hot Chocolate Gift Bag by Michelle - #burlap #bag #doilies #labels #stickers #tubes #valentine #chocolate #peppermint

Perfect for a Mini Tube of marshmallows and 2 Skinny Tubes of crushed peppermint!  The front of the bag was decorated with half a paper doily from SRM and a large flower.  

SRM Stickers Blog - Peppermint Hot Chocolate Gift Bag by Michelle - #burlap #bag #doilies #labels #stickers #tubes #valentine #chocolate #peppermint

The tag is from the SRM Valentines "labels by the dozen" sheet.

SRM Stickers Blog - Peppermint Hot Chocolate Gift Bag by Michelle - #burlap #bag #doilies #labels #stickers #tubes #valentine #chocolate #peppermint

There are lots of recipes for homemade hot chocolate online, I ended up choosing a simple mixture of powdered milk, powdered cocoa and sugar in equal parts.

What a fun and delicious idea Michelle.  Would never have thought to sew the 2 sizes of Burlap Bags together!

Birthday Card Gift Set by Laurel


Who needs some birthday cards?  I do, I do!  Everyone can use more birthday cards so Laurel Seabrook created a set of them as a thank you for a parent helper in her classroom.  What a great idea!  

Laurel used a number of different SRM Stickers to create these cards and she then tucked them into SRM's new A2 Card Boxes.  She created a thank you tag using a Labels by the Dozen Bright Blank and tied it up with some Solid Strawberry Twinery Twine.  Delicious!

Boxed Birthday Greetings by Juliana


Juliana Michaels used the new SRM A2 Card Box and decorated it with Sticker Sentiment Happy Birthday Stickers, a Doily and stars cut from Red Matte Vinyl.  Love that she used Vinyl on her box!  It makes such a bold statement.  

SRM Stickers Blog - Boxed Birthday Greetings by Juliana - #birthday #card set #clear box #doilies #gift set #stickers

SRM Stickers Blog - Boxed Birthday Greetings by Juliana - #birthday #card set #clear box #doilies #gift set #stickers

Juliana used one of SRM's new clear containers which is perfect for A2 cards.

SRM Stickers Blog - Boxed Birthday Greetings by Juliana - #birthday #card set #clear box #doilies #gift set #stickers

4 cards fit perfectly into this wonderful new clear box.

SRM Stickers Blog - Boxed Birthday Greetings by Juliana - #birthday #card set #clear box #doilies #gift set #stickers

For her cards, Juliana repeated a similar design for each card. She adhered a 5.5" length of one of the borders from the Take 2 - Stickers By The Dozen Birthday sheet along the left hand side. Juliana then cut stars from white cardstock, embossed them and attached them to the card front.  Next, she added one of the Happy Birthday round stickers from the Take 2 - Stickers By The Dozen Birthday sheet. Each card was then completed by adding pen lines using a marker and metal edged ruler.

Burlap Bags by Angi


Angi Barrs just loves the new line of burlap and muslin bags from SRM stickers. They are right up her crafty alley!

Today she would like to show you some fun ways to dress up the Burlap bags.  She finds them so perfect for gifting.  Angi used a Medium Burlap Bag and Pastel Borders for her first project.

SRM Stickers Blog - Burlap Bags by Angi - #birthday #burlap #bag #stickers #gift bag


The top of Angi's Burlap bag features one of the Border Pastel stickers.

And on the bottom Angi placed another sticker, "it's the little things", from that same Pastel Border.

SRM Stickers Blog - Burlap Bags by Angi - #birthday #burlap #bag #stickers #gift bag

And on her second project Angi used the new Take 2 Stickers by the Dozen Birthday.  And a touch of solid twine!

SRM Stickers Blog - Burlap Bags by Angi - #birthday #burlap #bag #stickers #gift bag

Wondering how to secure different papers, stickers, embellishments and fibers to your burlap bags?  Angi has given us a few pointers.

Tips for crafting with burlap bags:

1. Staples are great to hold your embellishments to the bag. {Angi stapled underneath the layers so that they are not visible on top}

2. Fabric glue is also great to use on the bags.

You can use these bags in so many ways!  They are perfect for birthdays, weddings, baby showers, or any type of gifting.
