Tiny Tags

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend! :) Now, during the stamp release party last week I missed the *Tiny Tags* release day, so today I am sharing my project. I've been busy getting ready for my oldest daughter, Madeline's, graduation. I wanted to make some graduation gift/money holders for some of her dear friends. 
I made candy bouquets. I am totally happy with
how these turned out. First, I started out with
Maddie's high school colors, green and blue. I
made a pocket/holder out of the blue and white
*bigger bitty bags* I folded the bag in half
and then stitched the sides together with my sewing machine.

I filled it with candies that color coordinate. I also
included a picture of Maddie, so she could write a message on the 
back for her friend. These pockets hold A LOT.
The cap is from the Wrap It Up cartridge on pg. 67
cut at 1.90". The award is from the Plantin Schoolhouse
cartridge on pg. 77 cut at 1.75"(roly poly). The inner circle is from PS 

 cartridge on pg. 72 cut at 1".The *wishing you luck!
is from the *Tiny Tags* stamp set by My Craft Spot. I added
some diamond glaze to the numbers and tassel. I

needed a simple design that I could easily recreate.
I made a pocket to hold a money gift. I used
the stars from the *Merry Christmas* stamp
set by My Craft Spot. *Celebrate* is from the

Celebrations cartridge cut at 3.55Wx1.50H. I sized
the cut with my Gypsy.
*Way to go Graduate* another great sentiment from *Tiny Tags* set.
I tied the tag on with *pea pod* twine. It's always fun to personalize 

with a name.

Is any candy bouquet complete without a chocolate
mustache?
I have a special graduation post coming soon. I would love to hear any suggestions. :)
