Hey there! How are you doing today? Are you staying warm if you live in the Northern Hemisphere? It's been frigidly cold here for over a week, and they are saying we are going to get some "winter mix", freezing rain, ice tomorrow night, so winter is officially here!

I've been under the weather for the past week with a pretty nasty cold. I'm slowly on the mend, but haven't been accomplishing as much as I would like/need to. Before Christmas I had a few days of glorious play with new Sale-a-bration and Occasions Catalog stuff. A fun 3-D I made was this gusseted treat bag made with the Mini Treat Bag Die and Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper:

Isn't this just the cutest thing? The Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper colors of Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Lemon Lime Twist, and Basic Gray are so bright and happy! This designer series paper is only available as a free item when you spend $50, but I used the Mini Treat Bag Thinlets Dies and Bottles & Bubbles Framelits Dies, which are both available to order. The two combined will be more than enough to qualify for the free DSP!

I used Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, and Lemon Lime Twist card stock and Silver Foil and Silver Glimmer Paper for the embellishment pieces.

The addition of the gusseted sides makes this a roomy little box. I filled it with some silver ready shreddie from the Sweet Soiree Ready Shreddie pack on page 13 of the Occasions Catalog.

The bottom sides of the bag are not completely attached, so this bag is reserved for light-but-yummy treats, like a chocolate bar or a bag of Skittles!

I followed a YouTube video by Kay Kalthoff to create my bag: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piQ8r7Xcjsc
