Baby Shower Party Favor Tutorial with SRM Stickers

Here is a fun project that I am sharing over on the SRM Stickers blog today.  It is a fun tutorial on how to make a party favor for a baby shower or any other fun occasion you may need one.  What better way to tell your guests thanks for coming to a party than to send them home with one of these pretty little gifts.



What you will need for this fun project:
  • 3 x 12 inch strip of patterned paper
  • Cardstock oval shapes cut with die cut machine or punches
  • SRM Sticker Sentiments - Baby
  • Scoring tool
  • Corner Rounder
  • Ink
  • Lace
  • Ribbon
  • Twine
  • Paper piercer and template
  • Needle and embroidery floss
  • Flower
  • Button
  • Treat bag
  • Strong Adhesive (Glue Dots, Scor-Tape)
Let's Get Started:

Step 1:
You will need to score your 3 x 12 inch piece of patterned paper at 2 inches, 6 inches, and 8 inches.

Step 2:
Next, fold on the score lines so that the patterned paper is showing on the outside, round the corners on the 2 inch flap, and then ink all the edges.

Step 3:
Take a paper piercer and a template to evenly pierce holes along the front edges and flap.  Use the needle and three strands of the embroidery floss to stitch in the holes.

Step 4:
Using a strong adhesive, secure the lace along the inside of the flap edge.

Step 5:
Secure the treat bag to the inside of the gift bag and adhere the flap to the front with a glue dot.  Layer the oval pieces together with a sticker on top and secure to the top of the gift bag with dimensional adhesive.

Step 6:
Adhere the ribbon, twine, flower, and button just below the oval pieces.  Add an SRM Sticker border to the bottom of the gift bag.

Enjoy!!

    1. Hi!! The patterned paper I used for this project is from a glitter DCWV stack....it seems to be a little heavier than the standard stack. ;)
