gift bag | The Maui Stamper

Here’s a gift bag worthy of royalty, in my humble opinion. I am really pleased with the elegant simplicity of this stencil – and I am really pleased that Stampin’ Up!’s Decor Elements line has introduced stencils as a design option. They’re easy, they’re fun, and they can be so much larger than stamps!

Vintage Ornaments I Decor Elements Stencil
Always Artichoke and Ruby Red Craft ink pads, Encore Gold ink pad
Stampin’ Sponges
Very Vanilla and Always Artichoke cardstock
Purchased kraft bag, gold wire ribbon, and tissue

I used a sticky note to mask off the top of the ornament in order to make it a proper gold hanger. This image is equally beautiful using Classic ink, with a softer, more vintage look.

I’m looking forward to stenciling some canvas bags with this image.

Crystal and I offer a series of classes in the fall to inspired our customers for Christmas. Tomorrow we’re doing the last of the set – Christmas bags. Today you get a little sneak peak of one of those bags. It’s very, very easy, and we designed it to perfectly coordinate with THIS card.
