Shaun the Sheep favor bag labels

I made favor bags for my daughter's birthday that had chocolate and cookies it them. I wish I could have afforded to put a little Wallace and Gromit or Shaun toy in it, but I had to make 30 bags and couldn't afford to buy that many.

I was hoping to get light pink or light green favor bags. They cost approximately $4 for 12 at a few different stores. But then I found some plain white lunch bags that I bought instead. I got 50 bags for less than $3. But you (usually) get what you pay for. They bags were poorly made, the glue that was used at the bottom of the bag sometimes stuck to the sides of the bag and when I opened them up some were torn a bit or got wrinkled. They also were thin, so you could see some of the contents of the bag. Not a big deal though...I don't think the kids cared and these bags ended up in the trash anyway.

I used Microsoft Publisher to design a personalized label for each child that RSVP'd to the party. I cut them with my paper cutter.

A year ago, a friend gave me this thing. I don't even know what it is called. She is a scrapbooking master and she has all sorts of REALLY COOL paper punches and die cutters (I don't even know if that's what they are called! hahaha!) Well this little contraption, trims the corners of a piece of paper to round them out. I used this on the square favor tags.

I folded the bag and glued on the tag. And that's it!
