Easter Lamb Treat Bags

I whipped up these super easy treat bags using the Easter Lamb single-image stamp in the Occasions Catalog and the Kraft Tag a Bag Gift Bags in the big catalog.  These are being mailed out to my niece, nephews, sons, and daughter-in-law filled with Easter treats.

Uses Easter Lamb Wood-Mount single-image stamp plus Brights Collection Stampin' Write Markers (Melon Mambo and Old Olive), Subtles Collection Stampin' Write Markers (Pink Pirouette), Whisper White Card Stock, Brights Color Collection Designer Series Paper Stack, Kraft Tag a Bag Gift Bags, SNAIL Adhesive, Mini Glue Dots, Tear & Tape Adhesive, Daffodil Delight 1/4" Cotton Ribbon, Melon Mambo 1/4" Cotton Ribbon, Clothespins, Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, Basic Gray Archival Stampin' Pad, Banner Triple Punch, Paper Snips, Craft Scissors, Fringe Scissors, Stampin' Trimmer, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine, Multipurpose Platform, Standard Cutting Pads, and Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder.

Because I knew I would sometimes want to stamp the adorable little lamb without the sentiment, I carefully cut the sentiment off of the stamp before mounting things separately.  I mounted the lamb on the large flat surface of the wood block.  Then, I mounted the sentiment along one of the flat edges.  Now, I can easily stamp the lamb and sentiment separately!

I did stamp off with the Basic Gray Ink before stamping the lamb image so he would be very soft in color.  I used the Wink of Stella Brush to give his fleece some sparkle and shine, but it doesn't scan well.

The item highlighted in bold is on sale this week as part of Stampin' Up!'s Weekly Deals.
