Project #1: DIY Wedding Favor Treat Bag

How fun is this… one of the new products available in the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog is called the Mini Treat Bag Thinlit die.. it’s for the Big Shot and cuts out this fun little bag!! The finished size is roughly 3-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ so as you can see here, it fits one of the regular size Hershey candy bars just perfectly!

I cut out the bag and wrapped the candy bar with the new Something Borrowed Designer Paper (pg 42).  The little coral colored strip is the same paper but spritzed with some Calypso Coral ink in a spritzer with rubbing alcohol.

Below: Do you see this beautiful Sahara Sand Lace Trim sticking out of the White Satin ribbon!?  Isn’t this so pretty!!  You can find the new lace ribbon on pg 43 of the Occasions catalog.

The “for you” words are just one of the amazing pieces included in the Mini Treat Bag thinlit package.. you get 10 extra pieces in addition to the bag!!

Let’s Play a little I SPY… how many new products to you see!?
