New Product Blog Hop - Burlap Bags

Welcome to our NEW PRODUCT Blog Hop!  This hop will take you through 34 consultant blogs introducing you to some of the best new products in the Autumn Winter Idea Book!  It's a big circle so when you get back to me you know you have been all the way around the hop! Just look for the next link near the bottom of each post.   If you came from Beth Naumann's Blog you are on the right track!

The 2013 Autumn Winter Idea was so full of fun new things I had a hard time deciding what to share!  When my new product arrived I spent most of my days creating cards with each new paper pack.   One night after creating a couple of cards I felt like I needed a break and reached for something totally different.  The product I reached for was our new My Creations Burlap Drawstring Bags (Z1872).  These 5 3/4" x 4 bags comes in a package of 3.

If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know how much I love burlap!  So of course, I would love these new burlap bags too!  They are great for giving small gifts!


The new Sparkle & Shine Textiles (Z1884) are perfect for Christmas gift wrap!  I used the Juniper piece on my bag. No sewing required! I used Base & Bling Adhesive Strips (Z1904) on the edges of the fabric to adhere to the burlap bag.  Next, I wrapped a piece of Ruby Chevron Ribbon (Z1846) around the fabric.  

I love our new M-size stamps!  This stamp is "Santa's Greeting" (M1028).  I stamped the image in black ink onto a shape I cut from the Art Philosophy Cricut.  I stamped the image once more on a piece of Ruby Cardstock and cut it out.  Next, I adhered it on top of the same image on the shape using foam tape to give it dimension.  A blending pen and Juniper ink added color the "HO" on the bottom.

Ruby Mini Medley's (Z1861) add the final decorative touches to the burlap bag - a Corduroy button and metallic baker's twine.

All of these new products can be found on my website at www.stampinheaven.ctmh.com

Now it's time to hop over to Jean McNulty's Blog.

Now, I want to share with a cute way to make a gift card holder!  I used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge to make this holder.  It was very simple!  The Cricut cuts the card and it folds so that you can slip a gift card inside!

This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
