Hi, this is my second post (I think I introduced myself, If not, my name is Annette and I am very new to this).
Anyway, I am having a Spa part for my 49th Birthday on Saturday night and I would like to give my guests a gift bag when they leave, but I would like to make it. Could anyone give me some suggestions on what I could make that would be impressive.
Please, Please, Please, I would so appreciate the help, and I know that this is really short notice :-) I also have to bake the cake and decorate it (I`m a cake decorator), plus cupcakes and appies ......... OK now I`m starting to freak out a little LOL.
Thank you so much in advance,
Annette

Hey, you will be fine... take a big deep breathe and relax.. now get busy!! lol Hope you have a excellent spa party and 49th bday!! I make gift bags.. I dont have a cart yet that makes gift bags so I buy the plain brown ones or coloured ones from walmart, or any store like that, and I cover the fron (and sometimes the back) in paper and then decorate it like I would a card, with a theme, paper, cartridge cuts.... ribbons.. whatever you want. If you have specific colours for your party, i would stick with those for your bags, I think this is a fabulous Idea!!! Ive posted a few bags I have done in the past, one for bday another for engagment party, hope it gives you some inspirations!!!!

If you have the TBBM cart, that would be a good cart to use for some ideas. I made little boxes for my dd 16th bday with m&m's in them. They turned out really cute. Here is a picture of them. Good luck and Happy Birthday!!!!! WENLAY attached the following image(s):

Thank you so much,
Annette I used the flower box on page 120 in the TBBM handbook and it's key 39 on your overlay. I think I turned on my fit to page setting to get them as big as possible on a 12x12. I also used Terrifically Tacky Tape to put them together. So much fun to make!!!!! The girls really loved them too.
