Shimmery Tote Gift Bag Tutorial
I am in love with Stampin’ Up’s new Shimmery Vellum, and it’s just stunning in the new 2021-2023 In Color Collection. I used it to create these gorgeous Shimmery Tote Gift Bag Totes, along with the All Dressed Up Dies. I also used the new In color Card Stock and Designer Series Paper for coordinating accents.
These treat bags will make great gifts and party favors. They are super easy to make. You can see them featured on yesterday’s Stampin’ Scoop Show video #121. Click here.
I have lots of photos and printable instructions below. Be sure to check out my special offer In Color Kits.

Those are so adorable!
Thank you so much!
I love these! Thank you for the idea and the instructions. I will definitely be making them.
Awesome! Good luck!
These little bags were such a good way to show the in colors. I was looking for the actual size it would hold. They are very cute. Thanks
Hi Rosie, I wouldn’t know how to figure that out. The largest die is 5-1/2″ x 5 and you use 2 of them together if that helps, or the photos. If not seeing them on the Scoop video may help. These are a good size: https://stampwithtami.com/blog/2021/04/meet-the-new-2021-23-in-colors-stampin-scoop-121/
Thanks, Rosie!
