Valentine's Day Bag

Today's project is a Valentines Day treat bag using the template from The Cutting Cafe. Making this was way too easy. The first thing I did was mark a blank sheet of paper with the words top and right on it and printed out the template so I could see the orientation of the bag. That way I knew which way to cut my DP so that my words would be in the right direction. Then all I had to do was cut my paper to 8.5 X 11 and place it in the printer so that the cut and score lines would be on the inside of the bag. I cut along the darker lines and scored along the lighter lines. Then I taped and folded, embellished and the bag was done in no time. If you like this one you should see what the other design team members made with this set. Simply amazing. Click here to take a look.
