I cannot tell you how absolutely thrilled I am about one of my newest acquisitions, the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits Dies. Originally I was a little worried I would be stuck with a rather expensive “unitasker” (a term coined by one of my all-time-favorite television personalities, Alton Brown, to describe a tool that performs only a single function). I personally don’t make treat bags or favors particularly often, but I really loved all of the extra little dies that were included (hearts, stars, banner, phrases, etc.) I’ve been trying to force myself out of my comfort zone lately, so I decided to take a leap of faith on this one.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that the assembled bag measured only a little smaller than a typical A2 card. And since this is a “flat” bag (no gussets/bottom), it works beautifully as a fancy little envelope for an adorable 3-1/2″ x 5″ pull style card (and will even fit into an A2 envelope for mailing!).
This card went together really fast, but I couldn’t be happier with the results!
I will forgo the boring details this time, as I think it’s pretty clear from the pictures how it was made. 😉
See ya next time … ink, ink, smudge, smudge!

Oh my goodness! I almost forgot to share these fun little Hershey’s chocolate bunny treats that I made for my co-workers just before Easter …
These were very simple to make! Just a 2″ x 11″ wide strip of Sahara Sand. I punched both ends with the Ornate Tag Topper punch, and then scored three times to get the width needed at the bottom, and the foldover piece at the front. I didn’t include those measurements, because they will vary depending upon the treat you are including and the amount of flap you want showing on the front. Then I wrapped a strip of DSP around the bottom, running under the flap and joining in the back, creating a boxed bottom. I finished it off with some coordinating ribbon, a die-cut from Apothecary Accents and a couple of circle punches. Enjoy!
See ya next time … ink, ink, smudge, smudge!
