A Very Dreamy Gift Bag Set

Hello! Today is my lovely mother's birthday. While I won't show your her fabulous present, I WILL show  you the birthday gift bag set that I made just for it! Since Spring has officially hit the Pacific Northwest, I felt that Dreamy was just perfect for this project.

I started with the card. I just loved the butterflies on Dreamy Three, and the lovely sentiment from the Elements die cuts.

I even created an envelope to match using Dreamy Two. To decorate the envelope, I added a few of the Dreamy Elements directly to the front. Remember to check the backs of the Elements sheets for great patterns too.

The ribbon was just a great addition, and I made sure to use it on the bag as well. It also matched the yellows on the envelope. 

The inside of the envelope has a great pattern as well. 

The bag was a pretty simple pattern. I actually backwards engineered this one from a different bag that I was gifted. I haven't found a good tutorial for this yet, so I may have to write up one at a later date. It was pretty simple, and only used two sheets of Dreamy One. 

The tag was a cute addition to the bag. I backed a piece of Dreamy Three with a piece of white cardstock, punched it, then added a few of the Dreamy Elements. This was easily tied onto the bag with a piece of twine.

I just love that each piece of Authentique paper has beautiful patterns on both sides. 

I hope that when you need some gorgeous gift packaging, you don't look any further than your paper stash!
