Red and Aqua – Take 2

October 11, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 13 Comments

While I had all my red and aqua papers out, I have made up a batch of gift bags. I love the plain white gift bags which are readily available from craft stores. By adding a Christmas die cut and some scrap booking paper, we now have some decorated bags of varying sizes for Christmas treats.

I found the free Christmas Dove svg file here.

    So beautiful, dear Lisa!! This colors are perfect for x-mas!!
    Lisa, I have a doubt and I would appreciate if you could answer it: do you use scissors to cut the doves?
    Sorry if I am disturbing you, Lisa.
    Love, Bela

    I just can’t get enough of this colour scheme! I really love those blank bags too – we always decorate and use them for personalised loot bags when we have parties for Miss Six – they get reams of comments – I think the parents love them as much as the kids!
