The idea was inspired by a project at the Stampin' Up! annual convention. It's so easy to transform a plain white gift bag into a beautiful hand-stamped creation. Of course, you may like it so much that you don't want to give it away! ;-)
The coordinating gift card was created with scraps left over from the bag front. When I originally stamped the sentiment with Basic Grey over the Kiwi Kiss, it competed too much. So I "stamped off" once before stamping the image, softening the look of the Kiwi Kiss. With the lighter image, the sentiment seems to just pop. And instead of tying the card to the bag, simply punch a small hole at the top corner, cut a slit to the hole with scissors, and it fits perfectly around the handle!
Hope you like it!

so funny we just did this bag at class today, I like how you used upsy daisy for gift card, so much easier.
I love that bag. It has a clean, crisp look to it. You did a great job with it.
Also glad to hear you finally have electricity!! Glad you and your family was safe. That was some serious wind and some serious customers!!! Yah for you!!!
I am just in love with this set. What a great tip for attaching the tag!
This is way nicer than the one we did at Convention - great job.
And glad to hear your lights are on - we never lost them, but there are people here in Beavercreek who still don't have theirs back on.
I love this bag, I just bought a bunch of white gift bags on clearance at wal mart - I will definitely be casing this.
This is just too cute!!! You did a fantastic job!! I LOVE that stamp set!!!
This totally looks like a bag you'd pay $8 for at a store! Great job!
