Santa Bag--Perfect for Last Minute Gift Wrapping!

This is another bag from my Wednesday WOW--Bags and Tags.  If you have the Top Note Die Cut (if not, why not?? lol!) and a few punches, you can whip this out quickly.  Details after the photo.

 

I made Santa similar to my Elf that I posted here.  The base is a Blush Blossom Top Note.  I sponged with Blush Blossom on the sides.

Santa's hat is a Real Red Top Note.  I just free handed the cut.  Start at one side point, go up and then across.  The trim and tassle are the large flower from the Boho Blossom Punch.  You can add glitter if desired.

Santa's beard is a Whisper White Top Note.  I cut it so that it's about 1 1/2".  Then I use the Scallop Edge Punch on the top side.

For the eyebrows, punch one of the small flowers from the Boho Blossom Punch.  Cut it in half and you have instant eyebrows!

Santa's eyes are 1/2" Whisper White circles with 1/4" Basic Black circles for eyeballs.

Next make Santa's beard.  Use one of the large flower from the Boho Blossom punch.  Cut it in half, but angle it just a bit.  (Can I pat myself on the back for this one--I think it's a perfect beard!)

Add a 1/2" Blush Blossom Circle, that's been sponged, for Santa's nose.

Finally, Santa's mouth is a ring made from punching 1/2" Circle punch and then punch 3/4" Circle where the 1/2" Circle was punched.  I used Real Red card stock.

See??  That's not so bad!  I hope you can use this idea--if not this year, then next.

Thanks for the visit!
