Getting my gift on: for the Coaches

First The Santa Gift bags!  I just had a great time making these.  I added white tissue paper to these

Pictures are not the best I had to snap them fast in my stamp room.  

there are 10 swim coaches!

From Robin’s Blog:  It’s an old, old design idea that uses one full sheet of 8 1/2″ x 11″ cardstock for the tote. From there, you can decorate it however you wish. I saw Selene’s photo tutorial for it on Stamping 411 yesterday and it all just clicked for me! Make a Santa tote!!

Here’s the link to the Stamping 411 tote tutorial for you: Tote or Card Holder Tutorial

And for the Bag contents:  

Inside was a gift card.  the gift card holder specs are as follows.  I cased them from Julie Davidson.  

The tag is cut from the Two Tags die on the Big Shot.  It fits perfectly inside the cardstock sleeve and holds a gift card with a mini glue dot.   The cardstock sleeve is 4-1/4″ x 6-1/8″ in Real Red.  Score on the long end at 1-5/8″ and 4-1/2″ and then use Sticky Strip  or mono multi liquid to glue it together, leaving one end open.

I also had a Cello Bag with 3 cookies.  2 Sugared shortbread and one Jelly-yummy.

I did not take a picture of the cookies- but it looked a lot like this picture:
