Butterfly Treat Bag

Hello friends
This is my final scheduled post - fingers crossed Blogger has behaved and it has all gone to plan.
A treat bag today...oh yes I have a fascination with chocolate!
I partially demoed this on TV, it was somewhat rushed but hopefully you got the gist.
Ornate Squares is featured with Splendid M-Bossabilities folder and....Butterfly Corner..again!!
I did warn you I adore this butterfly!
A side view, I've kept the bag closed by using magnets. 
This is a perfect idea for using up those chocolates with the centres you do not like!
I'm home later this evening and I hope to bring lots of trade show news to you tomorrow.
Take care friends.

What a pretty bag and such a good idea. But I am afraid I end up eating even the ones I don't like!! Saw you on C and C last night on the Spellbinders slot they were replaying parts of your demo from the weekend!! xx

What a pretty gift bag - i guess to accommodate different sizes of chocolate then you just use bigger card and score it wider?

Morning Christine

Yet another great idea for giving gifts of chocolates, you really have given us some great ideas.

Like others, I'm really looking forward to hearing all about your visit to Stitches, and am thinking about starting a new 'must have' list in preparation of some new goodies that will soon be on the market for us, that we will 'need'!

Have a safe journey home, I'm sure your boys and Bella will give you a very warm welcome.

Morning Christine
I loved this demo when I saw it at the weekend, Such a pretty die, as were they all. My only thoughts are that with all these intricate dies, waxed paper is very much a must and I'm having great difficulty finding some to buy. Think everyone else must be thinking the same. I wonder if the supermarket brands will do the same job? Looking forward to hearing all your news from the show.

Morning Christine, loving the little easter egg bags what a great idea. Hope you have enjoyed yourself and look forward to hearing all your news about new crafty stuff for us all!! Maddie x

Just noticed lady having problems with getting wax paper - I use mine out of cereal packets or a very good alternative which I use all the time now is to rub the die over with a tumble dryer sheet. Works very well for me every time.
