Christmas in July Day 2 and 3

For The Tree (D1891) works wonderfully for projects such as kraft bags and decorating larger gift bags.


Stamping with black ink directly on a kraft paper bag creates a great gift card holder for a Christmas stocking stuffer.

Decorating your own gift bags puts a personal touch to any gift giving occasion.
