Welcome to the Reverse Confetti Pretty Packaging Blog Hop! The Reverse Confetti designers are sharing a whole range of packaging ideas.
For the hop, I created glitter-stenciled muslin treat bags using the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts. Let’s take a look at the process.
To begin, cut a 4″ x 5″ piece of freezer paper (cut to the size of the muslin bag front) with the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts. I ran the freezer paper through the Big Shot first with all three snowflakes and again with the two smaller snowflakes.
Remove the cut out snowflakes from the panel. Iron the freezer paper panel (shiny side down) onto the muslin bag. The iron should be set on medium heat.
Apply glue to the open snowflake areas. I spread Aleene’s Jewel-It Embellishing Glue with a foam brush.
Shake glitter onto the open areas, covering generously. I used Martha Stewart blue iridescent glitter. Allow the glitter to dry, shake off excess and remove stencil.
To create matching gift tags: Make a tag base with a circle die. Cover the tag front with a scallop piece cut from silver foil, using a die in the Circles ‘n Scallops Confetti Cuts set. Attach a blue cardstock circle embellished with a glitter snowflake, cut with the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts.
Stamp and heat emboss (using silver embossing powder) the inside of the tag with a sentiment from Seasonal Sentiments. Punch the finished tag and string with metallic twine.
Fill treat bags with whatever your heart desires – chocolates, caramels, small toys, nail polish, soaps, …
Now it’s time to hop on over to Kathy’s blog. If you get lost along the way, you can find the hop order and list of all the participating designers over on the Reverse Confetti blog.
