I expect many of you have seen my pop-up gift bag video from a few years ago. It's been making the Youtube rounds for some time and has been very popular.
When I bought a Sephora gift card for my granddaughter, the clerk put it in a tiny shopping bag that is a gift-card holder. But not to be outdone, I needed to turn it into something a little more special. So I got to work:
Isn't that cute?
Now if you have ever shopped Sephora, you will probably recognize the theme - black and white stripes with a little red.
I turned to some discontinued products to make this card - Dressed to Impress stamps/dies and some retired black & white designer paper.
When the card is closed it needs a belly band to hold it shut. So I wrapped some Real Red cardstock around the card and decorated it with a label and some beauty products.
Pulling off the belly band, the card looks like that.
And then you open it:
OMG! Adorable, if I say so myself!
Now I had to get creative to use the bag inside the card. I carefully peeled open the bottom of the bag and cut away some of the paper so that it would work in my card. I was a little nervous - I only had one bag so I didn't want to ruin it. But fortunately, I did it right!
How cute is that?
