Valentines Treat Bag!

Check out this cute little Valentines Treat Bag!
I used the 
#167073- HEARTS GUSSETED TREAT BAG= $11.00
 
 NOTE:  I modified this bag a little.
HOW DID I DO IT? 
*I scored along the bottom edge of the bag and then folded it in.
*This made the bag have a bottom. 
*Then added a little glue to the "tabs" on the bottom so that it was now a flat base for this bag.
*As now it will stand up! 
I made 6 of these & filled them up with candy for the kids for Valentines. 
 
Here are the supplies: 
  • Heart Gusseted Bags
  • Endless Love Dies
  • Real Red card stock
  • Basic White card stock 
I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!
Happy Stamping!
