Kaisercraft Under the Gum Leaves Gift Bag & Tag

Hello Friends,

Diane here again to share a new project to compliment my “Under the Gum Leaves” Folio. This paper collection by KaiserCraft was a joy to work with. I just couldn’t stop making until all I had left were scraps. This paper has an Australian theme with adorable kolas, kangaroos, porcupines, emus, platypus and cockatoos. The collection is filled with flower and foliage in beautiful reds, greens, golds and khaki.

Under the Gum Leaves Gift Bag

Kaisercraft Bag and Folio

I decorated a Christmas gift bag to go with my Kaisercraft Under the Gum Leaves folio. Next, I started by using the stripe paper added some crochet lace to the top of the bag. I used the All hearts come home for Christmas” and the flower die cut shapes. Then, I stamped some gum leaves in green onto white cardstock and fussy cut them out, then I took a few of the wooden chip pieces, added copper and gold embossing powder for some color. I place them all in a pleasing design with a heart die from my stash and the “Love” curio from the collection.

Here, you can see the matching pair together. This would make a lovely gift.

Finally, I took this next photo so you could see the little tag I made to compliment the bag.

Kaisercraft and Graphic 45 Tag

I have another tag to share with you. This was the original tag but when I located a gift bag for my Kaisercraft Folio, I decided this tag was too large for the gift bag. But I wanted to share it with you for some addition inspiration.

Cockatoo Tag

This tag was created using a large Graphic 45 tag for the base then I used the cockatoo paper to cover it. I stamped some gum leaves in green ink and fussy cut them, added some flowers and a hand make poinsettia. Then used some more of the wooden pieces that I embossed in copper, added some lace from my stash and a flower curio from the collection. To finish, I added the “Joy” sentiment and some Really Reasonable Ribbon to top it off. I hope you like it.
