Ok, ok - I just had to make one more sample for you which features SALE-A-BRATION products....late in the night I decided this { I need to sleep more but when the creative juices strike,  well, you know exactly what I mean}... :)

Carouse through a HallMark store and through the gift wrap aisle, see the gift tag 'toppers' - you know the decorative tags that just stick on the front of a bag or on a wrapped parcel?  They are more for " decoration " than for tags.
Anyways....they were all cute in one way or another, but I was thinking, for that price - we sooooo could to-ta-lly do ones ourselves!!!!

So there I am last night - grabbed  the last of my ICE CREAM PARLOR paper - a pretty fun collection in the SAB catty - get it as your free gift when you make a minimum $60 purchase!

[LAST DAY is TODAY for this promotion - so click on the catalogues to the right and place your order if you want to take advantage of this, you have till 2 am Eastern Canada time - due to the time zones - we have a slight difference in our favour!]

1. So ....I had paper - I had buttons and I had ribbon - all co-ordinating, hmmmm....then it struck me to use my  ORNAMENT PUNCH to create a VASE, 
2. use my BUTTONS as FLOWERS, 
3. and use the RIBBON as a GIFT BAG HANDLE and then I was  done in no time!!!                      Well, by 'no' time, I may mean " 30 mins" as I made some very tiny details!

•  CUT 2 SQUAREs { Ice Cream Parlor Designer Paper}, any size = GIFT BAG
•  CREATE PHOTO CORNERS FROM STRIPS OF SCRAPS - experiment - make it interesting.  
•   USE the ORNAMENT PUNCH {and co-ordinating paper}. TRIM POINT and INSTANT VASE! 
• ATTACH TO BACKGROUND PAPER AND PLAN OUT 'FLOWERS'
•  PIERCE PAPER and STITCH 'STEMS'  -  OPTIONAL - could 'draw' stitches with marker!  
•  a FLOWER BUTTON - on STEMS{secure with a knot, and move on to the next button}.
•  attach a RIBBON HANDLE to 'back side' with MINI GLUE DOTS
• PUNCH 2 strips of WHISPER WHITE using a SCALLOP BORDER PUNCH [ one each for tag's front and back top edge] - adhere
•  TISSUE PAPER, is sandwiched between squares to mimic 'gift wrap'!
•  LEAVE BACK BLANK - for writing message or attaching to a gift bag.
