I began by trimming panels of Simon Says Stamp Schoolhouse Red and Neenah Desert Storm card to be slightly smaller than the front of the gift bags and cards. I fixed 3 strips of Design Tape to each panel, fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium Matte. (I didn't want the edges curling up when it came to the next step). I dusted the panels liberally with an Anti-Static Powder bag, inked the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Believe, an oldie but one of my absolute favourite SSS Christmas sentiment stamp sets, with Versamark, sprinkled with Ranger Superfine White Embossing Powder and heat set. I repeated the process with the smaller sentiment from the stamp set (I know, I should have stamped them both together) isn't hindsight a wonderful thing and dusted off the powder from the anti-static bag with a soft cloth.
I die-cut the Kate snowflake from Simon Says Stamp #120 Ultra White card and fixed to the cards and gift bags using Distress Collage Medium Matte. I sprinkled the panels with Stampendous Chunky White Embossing Enamel, heated from underneath and fixed the panels to the bags and cards using Distress Collage Medium Matte.

OMG - these are amazing! I just made a handful of gift bags for my daughter and I thought I did a pretty good job, but mine are nothing compared to yours. So beautiful - thank you for sharing these :-)
