Valentine Gift Bags

Happy Monday crafty friends! Aimee here with you today! Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and I have to say that it is very close to being one of my favorite holidays! I am a firm believer in showing love all through the year but Valentine’s Day is great occasion to delve into the paper stash and have fun making crafty gifts to show your love!

Today I am sharing a couple of bags that were made with the Purse With Bow SVG (Lori’s ShopSilhouette). Once I had all of my pieces cut out, it seemed the bags came together in no time at all!

The bags alone would be fun to decorate with some die cuts but there is a great bow included with this one! Once I had the bags put together and the bows attached, I knew I needed a little something extra. Some twine and a couple of the tags from the sticker sheet would be perfect to hang off of the handle to complete them!

Add a bag of candy with a twine bow and look how adorable these turned out using the Echo Park Be My Valentine collection!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Valentine Treats by Natalie and a pillow by Christine

Natalie has created the cutest Valentines for her kids. Wanna take a look? She used the Valentine Cards 2 file for the card. Natalie says…

Here’s a treat for you today!  I decided to make a little treat for some of my littles ones friends.  I made some homemade suckers.  And man are they good!
 Once wrapped, I cut out the sucker tag. My kids added stickers and signed their names, and well, of course I didn’t get a picture of that!  What a fun little treat!

 

Natalie has posted the recipe and more details on her blog so be sure and check it out.

Christine has created an adorable pillow with Lori’s Vintage Baby fabric produced by Riley Blake.  It turned out SO cute.  Christine says…

I love using paper with my digital cut files, but for this project, I wanted to do something a little different.  I decided to use my Lori Whitlock die cuts and Silhouette to cut my shapes from fabric.  I had just gotten a bunch of fat quarters of Vintage Baby, which is a fabric line that Lori Whitlock designed for Riley Blake Fabrics, and I thought a small pillow with an appliqué on it would make a nice baby gift.  It is really easy to cut fabric on your Silhouette if you know how, so be sure to check out my blog post for tips and tricks to make your next appliqué project a success.
