Sweet Gift Bag & Gable Box Gifts

Hello everyone, 
Today I wanted to share a couple of the bags and boxes I made for last weeks Valentines Day. The 2 here were made for My friend Jennette, and the Gable box was made for My husband. I had also Made another bag for my Dr. and then another Gable Box for my Mom. I used Lots of fun Really Reasonable Ribbon flowers, Lace, Leaves, Stamens, and goodies on these boxes and bags, I really just enjoyed making them to give away, it felt so good!


The bags, they were up in my cabinets, you know I had these for a long time, they were kinda flimsy , but after adding the good design paper around them, they ended up being super sturdy and very very nice bags, strong enough to hold a heavy large chocolate candy kiss and several other items.

Adding Paper- after  gluing and using Scotch tape runner and 5/8" Scor-Tape(helps to keep paper on WELL)  to put my paper on, I added the beautiful Really Reasonable Ribbon Gabrielle Off White Lace , I also used the Beautiful Pearl Pink Delicate Satin Ribbon to create a beautiful big bow, then added the darling Strawberry Brownie Stitch grosgrain ribbon on top of that. I then made my glass flowers using Cheery Lynns flower dies(my makersmovement) and placed an 8mm white flatbacked pearl in the center of it.

Cluster of flowers and dies-
So I cut out a heart filigree piece using shimmer card stock, then added my white swirls (cheery lynn) placed my Really Reasonable Ribbon White Leaves, Chelsea Rose, Rose buds, Stamens, carnation, Sweetheart Blossoms and such by using hot glue. The CottageCutz Hedgehogs were colored using copics and then placed using RRR foam tabs. I really had so much fun decorating up the bag here. I will link all supplies used below from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store.

Sweet Fox Valentines Day Candy Pocket


Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all! Today I have these darling Candy Fox Heart Pockets I made using all Heart shape die cuts, and Really Reasonable Ribbon, and embellishments.I made 12 of these to give at our Doll Club Meeting for February, for Valentines Day exchange. I thought they would be cute and fun to give to the ladies. I really enjoyed making these, and thought next time I will have to try to make some Kitty Cats maybe, they would be super cute too!


To start with I cut out 24 large hearts, remember they are pouches to hold a candy, so the back is the same as the front. I then glued the edges together to create 12. Next I took a smaller heart and cut 12 white for the foxes face, and cut it in half, and then cut a little off of it, and glued it down to the top. I thought wouldnt it be darling to have the eyes heart shaped as well, so I used Really Reasonable Ribbons Heart shaped pearls, and then added the black to the centers. Now if you have those black pearls really small, you can use those, but I had the viva pen, and used it. The tip isnt working so well on it, so the dots dont come out as great as they use to, but it worked., Next I used Really Reasonable Ribbons White 8mm pearl, and colored it black for the nose. The ears I used 2 different sizes of hearts , and then made 2 different bows and added a flower to the center. Love making these darling foxes, they were so fun. Next I am going to try to make some kitty Cats, I think they would be so darling too!
Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies used:
8mm flat backed Pearl
11mm white pearl bead heart shape
10mm Resin flower
Ribbon Club assortment for the bows
Delicate Stitched Ribbon
Scotch Advanced Tape Refill
Saved Wire from all the Mulberry flowers

Other Supplies:
Heart dies
Viva Pearl pen in black
branch punch
design paper
candy
glue gun
wire from flowers

for this darling pocket I started by using the library die and cut out the darling paper with it, next I used the white card stock and cut the window die , and then my baby lamb was all cut in white, and then distressed using distress ink and copic pens to color the pink on the little lamb. I wanted to keep the window all white and the swirl I cut in white and left it all white, as I wanted to add a little greenery using the branches, and then the open roses. On the window I did add RRR flower embellishments, and they too are white, and love how they look. This sweet lamb was so fun to color up, its an oldie, but was fun to work with, as its been awhile since Ive used it. The tag I just cut using the cutter, and then punched a hole and added some more ribbon, and then rose buds.

Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to you all! Today I have recycled this darling snowman treat box that I received in a basket, that held truffles, and thought how cute it would look decorated with Really Reasonable Ribbons ,flowers, and embellishments.

Hope you enjoy my post for today, and Hope you all have a Very Merry Christmas as well!

Seam Binding Lipstick Red(snowman scarf) 
30mm white leaves

flower shaped rhinestone embellishment

So for this sweet little snowman treat box, I started with covering the bottom of him with 29 open roses in all white. Love how it looks. Next I ruched up the seam binding in Lipstick red and added it to the scarf around his neck to give it a neat look, and then added some white leaves, green gingham and a green flower rhinestone embellishment.

for the hat I chose to do the same using the seam binding, but this time I added a little flower resin embellishment to his hat. This project was super fun to do, as I enjoyed taking a break from everything else going on, and being able to just craft for a bit. Hope you enjoyed my post for today!

Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Thank you so much for stopping by! Hugs to all
