I used Kraft cardstock for the pattern Kraft cardstock and maroon cardstock for the handle.
Quite easy to make using my Martha Stewart score board.
Made a couple changes to how Frenchie made the gift bag. I chose to seal the side of the gift bag up differently. Instead of tucking the less wide side under I used adhesive tape on the less wide side and adhered the side to the wider side without tucking. I also used adhesive on the bottom left & right panels to adhere them to the bottom inside.
Used Spellbinder for sentiment tag. Stamped "Joy" sentiment.
Added some ribbon & holly embellishing.
brads: 2 mini gold - to attach handle to gift bag
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
holly: Make It Christmas - from Hobby Lobby
paper:
krafty Christmas cardstock
cardstock - maroon
punch: Crop-A-Dile - used for holes for handle
ribbon: Craft Narrow Ribbon Bow-tique
Spellbinder: Shape Back to Basics Tags
stamp: Fiskars 'tis the season - sentiment "Joy"
tape: red adhesive - holds gift bag together better than ATG adhesive
tools: Martha Stewart score board
