Valentine's Treat Bags + DIY Rosettes Tutorial

I'm glad to be able to share a DIY tutorial on a couple of pretty Valetine's treat bags I created! Ann Butler Designs' products were key during the process of making these projects I'm showing you today!

Supplies
Stamps: Colorbox Background Basics by Ann Butler - Basket 1 and Picnic 1
Inks: Colorbox Crafter's Inks by Ann Butler in Sunshine, Colorbox Crafter's Inks in Bark and Snow
Tools: Colorbox Color Blender, Westcott Titanium Bonded Trimmer and Titatium Non-stick Scissors. WRM Gift Bag Punch Board
Velcro Mini Fasteners - Round 3/8" Dots
Adhesives: Ad-Tech Crafter's Tape, Bazic two sided tape and foam tape, Uhu silicone glue
Enviromental Technologies Easy Cast Resin and Easy Mold Silicone Putty
Embellishments: White tulle, SU linen thread, Lara's Crafts jute twine, gold vintage button, handmade resin flower, staple, mini tag
Paper: Leather textured cardstock

I absolutely love the final look of these pretty treat bags, but for them to look like this I had to create every single thing from scratch. That's right! The embellishments, the bags themselves were all made from scratch! To see my step by step tutorial click HERE.

I have certainly been inspired to create pretty Valentine's projects lately, especially for friends and family. I also like to make projects in non-traditional Valentine's colors. In this particular ocassion I was also inspired by a nice blog hop and challenge being hosted by Latina Crafter!

I hope you enjoyed today's post and tutorial! Have a nice and creative weekend!

    Made a mistake in first comment. Such a beautiful treat bag. Would make a lovely card front too. I like that background stamp.

That is why my latest Holiday projects have been on the quick and easy side so you can try them out if you need to! The usual theme for New Year's cards is usually monochromatic, metallic... But, what if we used colorful Holiday colors instead? Why not? Well, this time you'll see me use papers from Simple Stories Very Merry Collection. Video Tutorial This is short and sweet video tutorial where I show you how I put together this card. Really with card designing the hard part is figuring out what you want your card to look like in the end but once you have figured out what elements you'll be adding and where you will be placing them the card comes together pretty fast.
