Little Pink and Black treat bags

Hi Everyone! Today i'm going to share one of my submissions to PSA Essentials. When Libby contacted me to see if I wanted to design some projects with her stamps, I was thrilled when she sent me a stamp set called Dare to Dream. I was getting ready for my Avon 2-day Breast Cancer walk and these stamp sentiments were perfect for some goodie bags that I wanted to make for my teammates. I used a treat bag templated called the 2-4-6-8 favor box I found on the Scor-Pal website. I started with black cardstock, stamped some polka dots, then created the tags on the front with the PSA stamps. Super easy and quick!


There were 17 women on my team so I made alot of these boxes!


All of these sentiments were perfect for a group of women who had just spent 6 months fundraising money for breast cancer treatment and awareness. We definitely Made It Happen the weekend of our walk! I just love using Baker's Twine right now, such a fun detail to add to any project.

That's all I have today! I hope you had a great weekend. Ours was wet and rainy, and it's supposed to rain through Wednesday. Stay dry and thanks for stopping by!
