Stunning Blue and White Gift Bag and cards

This Easy Bag and Gift Cards Idea is using just 1 12 x 12 sheet of Walk in the Forest Designer Series Paper. From this you can create the bag and two co-ordinating cards.
The bag is very easy to make and I have put the measurements below.
Of course you can make this bag bigger or smaller as desired by altering the and adjusting the sizing.

Each card is created with the Note Card and Envelopes and the DSP is left over from the bags. These 3 pieces are 1-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ and I have flipped the one in the middle to show the reverse.
Using the sentiments from Merriest Trees and the 2-3/8″ circle punch. I love how this sentiment is in the shape of a tree.

In the background is A blue white and green gift bag with twine handles. The pattern has a blue background with green and white trees. there is a twine handle. In front of the bag is ta gift card with the same patterned paper in 3 strips. A White circle on top and a sentiment that reads We Wish You a Merry Christmas in the shape of a tree. Under this is a Black and white checked ribbon.
Fabulous sentiment in the shape of a tree.
In the background is A blue white and green gift bag with twine handles. The pattern has a blue background with green and white trees. there is a twine handle. In front of the bag is ta gift card with the same patterned paper in 3 strips with Pretty Peacock card matting underneath. The sentiment is stamped directly on the card under the strips to the left and reads Hoping your home is filled with the Spirit of the Season.

3 matching pieces of DSP

This second card has the sentiment stamped directly on the card, with three matching pieces of DSP.
They have been cut so the pattern remains intact. Underneath is 3 mats of Pretty Peacock, the DSP measures 1-1/4″ x 2-3/8″ each.

Measurements and instructions for the bag:

Imperial 8-51/2″ x 6″ (cut 8-1/2 with pattern going the right way) Score @1″ on all edges.

Metric 21.5 x 15.5cm Score at 2.5 cm on all edges.

Fold the top over and score.

Cut the two vertical lines on each side up to the horizontal line at the bottom. Put glue on the outside of side tabs and glue to the bottom.

Repeat then tuck one half into the other and glue to make the bag.
