Thank you gifts

My children went to summer school with their drama group a couple of weeks ago and to say thank you to the people that run the group I made some gifts. For the ladies I made these cute little bags filled with notelets which I saw on a us demos blog and for the chaps I made boxes filled with chocolates. I will soon add a tutorial for the bags and the flower on the side which are very effective but very easy.
For sometime I've had the Bella Bleu papers and I finally got around to using them for these bags.

The boxes used some Jackpot DSP which is full of fun and perfect for the men in your life. The colours include real red, so saffron, very vanilla and basic black. To hold the box lid in place I used some of our gold elastic thread again perfect for the project.

You can try out some Stampin' Up! products at Emma's and my Experience Event in Lincoln on 12 September. Check out the link in the right hand side bar or contact me for details at martin.tant@homecall.co.uk

Happy crafting.
