Fold up a piece of thin card or paper like a concertina, the second & third fold just below the bag handle, then put against the die cut but put it about an 1/16th up from the bottom of the bag die so It's doesn't cut away the bottom.

Inside the concertina bit put happy birthday or something
Then tie the hole lot up with a ribbon
See this done on QVC

Better still sell the bluddy thing

They could go on each arm of a sizzix doll "Shop till you drop" kinda thing.

Ah, no - mine was like the little yellow bag in your link. Lightly raised from the card.

Could you sort of hang the 'take out box' from an aperture card ??

Whizzz · 10/05/2006 21:13

'Sightly raised' that should read !

Carolinett · 10/05/2006 21:15
