This gorgeous bag sent in by Pat Sloan who told us that she had enjoyed one of our workshops and was inspired to use her free teabag papers (which we have available to download FREE on our "FREE Exclusive Paper & Project" page); she loved using our Enchanted Embossing Powder and said that everyone should try it as it is SO MUCH MORE than any other she has ever tried, it definitely has the WOW factor since I could punch it and it went through my Sizzix machine too!

Step-by-steps To Make Punched-out Music Notes & Guitars:

1.  Stamp Versamark ink directly onto copy paper.

2.  Pour  Magic Mirror Silver Enchanted Embossing Powder over the area which you stamped the ink pad.                                     

3.  Gently pour off excess (don't tap), then gently melt with a heat tool, repeat if desired. 

4. When cool I put the silver base through my Sizzix machine with a music note die. With the piece that is left over, punch the paper with music note and guitar punches.

   

 Step-by-steps To Make Bag & Rosette:

1. Add double sided tape to required edges of the bag (once cut out and scored) and assemble.

2.  Create the teabag rosette (click here for instructions), follow up to step 4; instead of step 5, I took the top right triangle and folded the outer edgeto run along the centre line, repeat on the left side before I stuck the rosette together.  I then stuck the 8 folded parts together in the same way as the instructions.

3.  Stick to the front of the bag with double sided tape, add 1 of the mini squares with a doubled foam pad.

4.  Stick the Sizzix cut magic mirror silver music note to the bag handle; add a dot of glue to the bag and touch one of the punch out notes with the blu-tack end of the cocktail stick and add to the glue, repeat with the rest of the punch outs.
