All Star Blog Hop: Marbled Elegance

Welcome to our All Star monthly blog hop for the Marbled Elegance Suite of products! We are excited to share even MORE ideas than what we are offering in our exclusive Video Class Bundle this month.

Have you ever made a card from a bag? I decided to try it and I’m in love with the results.

The fun fold card is made from the larger bag. So I also made a matching treat holder with the smaller bag. (These gift bags are sold together and are part of the suite. But you can buy them separately.)

A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube and on Facebook step-by-step directions for creating these card & treat bag sets. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

(Though my card & bag sets are related to love and Valentine’s Day, you could change out the patterned papers, colors, sentiments, etc and create card/bag combos for many other occasions. Create and then share YOUR versions in our Stamp Your Art Out Group on Facebook.)

I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list linked to my online store for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel or tune into my events on my Facebook Page so you can get updates when I share and go live).

  • 2” x 4” (x2)
  • 2-3/4” x 4-1/4” (x2)
• Marbled Elegance Paper
  • 1” x 4” (x4)
  • 2-1/2” x 4” (x2)
• Gold Foil
  • 4-5/8” x 4-1/8” (x2)
  • 2-5/8” x 4-1/8” (x2)

Bag Layer Measurements…

• Colored Cardstock
  • 3-1/4” x 5-1/2”
• Marbled Elegance Paper
  • 1-3/4” x 3-1/4” (x2)
• Gold Foil
  • ½” x 3-1/4” (x2)

Envelope Layer Measurements…

• Marbled Elegance Paper
  • 2-1/4” x 6”

Here are photos of the finished cards that I made from the largest of the bags. Closed they measure 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″.

And open they measure about 14″ wide!

Here are photos of the finished treat bags that I made from the smallest of the bags.

When the flaps of the bags are shut, the bag shape will be more like a purse (in the shape of a triangular prism). So keep that in mind when planning what you’ll put inside. The base measures about 1-3/4″ x 3-1/4″. The height is about 3-1/2″.

Decorating the envelopes is optional, but so much fun!
