My daughter had a birthday party and she wanted to decorate some treat bags to give to her friends at the party. Here are just a few to give you an idea of what we made!
Here is a video to show how we made these fun bags!
We started by coloring in the papers from Adornit with various types of markers from Arteza. Cut them out and use the Xyron Creative Station Lite with the permanent adhesive to stick the colored papers to the pink papers, and then did the same method to stick the matted paper to the brown gift bag. Using the Xyron Creative Station Lite makes this whole process so easy and we had a blast making them!
The colors and themes are endless for how you can make these bags, just switch out the the Paintable sheets and cardstock colors to suit your needs!! My daughter pick out her favorites which were pink, mermaids, cats, and flamingos!!
