A Little Box In A Bag...

Here's a little something that I completed today after being inspired by the ever-so-talented Becky Roberts. You can find her version here. I'm thinking that these little bundles would make great Hostess Gifts or a cute workshop. Whatever suits your needs...

Edited to add:
Here are the directions are as follows...

Box Base

Take a 4" x 3 1/2" piece of cardstock and score a 1/2" on all four sides.
Cut a slit in all four corners to 1/2" mark to form box and adhere.

Bag

Take a 4" x 11 1/2" piece of B&T and apply adhesive along the bottom (11 1/2" length) and along the right (4" side) and adhere around the box base.
Take two strips - 1 1/2" x 11 1/2" (top border) and 1" x 11 1/2" (bottom border) and use a decorative edge punch or scissors and adhere to bag.
Punch your holes for your straps (I used ribbon, but don't remember the length. You could also use cardstock) and add to the bag.

The cards are 3" x 3", with a 1/2" B&T bottom border, 2 1/4" olive cardstock square and 2 1/8" colonial white cardstock square.

Enjoy!!!

Papers: G1022 Mayberry Workshop Kit (Large Floral B&T Duos, Olive Cardstock), Z1375 Kraft Cardstock

What kind of consultant will you be?

Discount Consultant: You like the idea of buying stamps and supplies for your personal use at a 22 percent discount and occasionally selling to neighbors, relatives, friends, etc.

Seasonal Consultant: You work hard for a short period of time or season to earn a specific amount of money or to achieve a specific goal, and then you maintain minimum orders and sales during the balance of the year.

Hobby Consultant: You love doing workshops and earning extra money when it is convenient. You work a lot some months and very little other months. You will do workshops if they are easy to book, and maybe have a regular group that meets together once a month. You enjoy the rewards that being a Close To My Heart Consultant brings, but you don’t plan to make Close To My Heart a career.

Career Consultant: You view Close To My Heart as a viable business with long-term career potential. You pursue a management role, and you want to continue moving up with your Close To My Heart career. You love attending Close To My Heart events and have close relationships with other consultants. You work your business in a consistent and ongoing manner.

Whatever kind of consultant you feel you'd be, I'd love to have you JOIN MY TEAM!
