Easter Gift Bag
The Easter Bunny, hunting Easter eggs and family fun are all part of the celebrations. And don’t forget chocolate Easter eggs! With this fun Easter DIY project, you can create your own gift bags. This little bag is perfect for filling with chocolate eggs and other goodies. The gift bags are not only fun to make and fill, but also fun to give
Cut a sheet of scrapbook paper from the Close Knit block at 15cm with the Vaessen cutting ruler.
With the Sizzix cutting machine, punch the Thinlit Easter Bunny out of this paper. Repeat this with another sheet of paper. Only keep the egg-shaped cutout from this second sheet to use later for the opening.
Take a sheet of scrapbook paper and score it on 2 sides at 4cm and 9cm and on 1 side at 18cm and 22cm.
Snip out corners so that you can fold the paper into a box. This should result in the above shape.
Fold the box and stick it together with double-sided tape. Cut away one of the overlapping pieces. This where you will later place the paper with the egg-shaped opening with the Easter Bunny.
Take the Fuse tool and use the Sizzix cutting stencil as a guide to fuse a neat little egg-shaped pouch. Leave the top of the egg open and fill the pouch with glitters. Then seal the pouch with the Fuse tool.
Stick the pouch to the back of the paper with the egg-shaped cutout. Turn the paper over and on the front, stick the Easter Bunny cutout onto the egg-shaped plastic pouch with double-sided tape.
Stick all of this to the gift bag with double-sided tape. Fold down the paper at the top of the bag.
With the Vaessen hand punch, punch two little holes in the flap, then fill the gift bag with chocolate eggs and finish it off with a pretty ribbon and a card.
