Papertrey Ink Blog Hop-August

http://craftingwithclass.blogspot.com/2010/08/papertrey-ink-blog-hop-august.html

This is soooooo quick, inexpensive, & easy!!! This treat bag holds a bag of popcorn & a pull-out tag for a message of encouragement on the first day of school. Tell me that won't start your year off with an A+!!! Hee Hee :)

Here's how quick & easy it is to do:
Step 1: get a paper bag. I used a colored one to save on time & paper to embellish it.

Step 2: Fold it to the desired length of your pocket.
Step 3: Add adhesive to the very edges to create the pocket. Place your intended treat there to make sure it will fit. Add a piece of DP enough to cover the bag, but you don't need to go all the way down (it won't be seen anyway- save your paper!)

Step 4: Remove liner, fold to adhere pocket. Embellish the front pocket & add the tag that tucks into the bag. I used a 1 3/8 circle punch to punch out the apple I stamped from Teacher's Apple Set & the red layer with 1 1/2 circle punch. I did the same thing to the other side :) & punched a half hole for the apple to fit into when you tuck it in.

Step 5: There is no step 5 cuz you're done! How easy peasy was that, right!
Enjoy your creation! You can tuck any treat that will fit- not just popcorn :)
