Envelope Purse Birthday Goodie Bag ~ Video #159

 Happy Tuesday CJToo Friends! 

Today is Design Team project day at My Pink Stamper and our assignment was to create a favor or goodie bag -- now you know me -- this was definitely right down my alley -- so my only problem was figuring out what to make.  :)  I chose a BIRTHDAY favor....

I wanted to make something a little out of the ordinary (plastic baggies or lunch sacks) so I went prowling through my bins of stuff.  I spotted these brown kraft envelopes and thought I could make something with it and quickly got to work.  Since our theme was "birthday" -- I pulled out my Birthday Extravaganza paper stack by The Paper Studio.  I found the most adorable "embossed and glittered" cupcakes and knew I found my coordinating cardstock. 





I am spotlighting the "Have the Happiest Birthday" stamp from Fabulous Phrases stamp set by My Pink Stamper on today's project.

Other ideas:
-- create these for your girlfriends for a luncheon or get together
-- make as party favors
-- tuck a gift card inside and give as a gift
-- create a special note and insert with a little trinket (bracelet, necklace or earrings)

In the video I will show you how I transformed this plain kraft envelope into a birthday goodie bag purse. Click here to watch on YouTube if you are unable to see it below.
