In Color Beach Bags…and More!

Today I am posting pictures and details from last night’s Facebook Live.  We made bright and fun projects with our new In Color collection.  These Beach Bags were our first project.  They are gift card holders – they are so appropriate for summer, and I also had end-of-year teacher gifts in mind when I designed these.  They are very simple to make.

Dimensions are as follows:

Cardstock Base 4″ x 11″, scored at 4″, 5 1/2″, and 7″

Designer Paper 4″ x 4″ (striped) and 4″ x 1/2″, 4″ x 1 3/8″ (dotted)

Whisper White 3 3/4″ x 3 3/4″

Cardstock Handles cut with 1 3/8″ circle and 2 3/8″ stitched circle

The sunglasses are made with “Pocketful of Sunshine” and the coordinating framelits.  The tag was stamped with stamps from “Tabs for Everything”.

We also used the same base piece to make this project look like a wrapped present…

The base is the same, but we have added a 4 1/4″ x 3″, scored at 1 1/2″, box lid instead of circular handles.  This folded lid piece is attached to the back of the present.  The front of the lid piece is covered with a 1 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ piece of designer paper.

The “ribbon” is made from 1/2″ strips of cardstock.  These strips are 1 1/2″ long on the lid, and 4″ long on the base.  The bow is made from two die cut flowers from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits.

All of the stamped images and greetings on this version of my gift card holder are from “Picture Perfect Birthday”.

We also made these cards, each from a half sheet of 8 1/2″ x 11″ cardstock, scored in half each way, and then cut diagonally.

This is a really fun and different layout…but so easy!  Again, I am using “Picture Perfect Birthday”.

If you need more details, please don’t hesitate to ask, or refer back to the Facebook Live video from last night (May 23).
