- 2" x 4-1/4" from Garden Green Cardstock
- 1-7/8" x 2-1/8" of small lily pads with pink flowers on blue and green background watercolor design from Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper, cut so the lily pads are horizontal on the vertical strip

- 1" x 2-1/2" from Copper Foil Sheets
- 1" x 1-1/2" from Garden Green Cardstock
Insert treats into Copper Dotted Treat Bag. Fold the top of the bag over.
Unlock the Delightful Tag Topper Punch. Slide one short edge of the 2" x 4-1/4" strip of Garden Green Cardstock into the punch as far as it will go. Punch.
Mount the "Sending A Little Something..." sentiment from the Sending You Thoughts Set on Block G. Ink up only the words "A Little Something" using the brush tip of the Pretty Peacock Marker. Breathe on the stamp to moisten the ink. Stamp the sentiment in the center of the bottom of the punched green tag as close to the bottom edge as possible.
Adhere the 1-7/8" x 2-1/8" piece of Lily Impressions Designer Paper to the top of the punched, stamped green tag so the top edge of the designer paper is just below the bottom of the bumps at the top of the tag.
As you are ready to stamp using the Lovely Lily Pad Photopolymer Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the large lily pad stamp from the Lovely Lily Pad Set on Block H so the detailed side of the stamp is the one you will be stamping. Ink up the stamp with the Pretty Peacock Ink Pad. Stamp it on the 1" x 3" strip of blues and greens Lily Impressions Designer Paper.
Pick out the large lily pad die from the Lily Pad Dies. Put it on top of the stamped large lily pad image on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so it is centered over the image. Run through the tool.
Adhere the lily pad cut out to the tag so the ends hang over the left and right edges and the bottom edge of the lily pad is about 1/4" from the bottom edge of the designer paper on the tag.
Pick out the medium, detailed lily flower with three points die from the Lily Pad Dies. Put it on top of the 1-3/4" square of Copper Foil Sheet on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the detailed, copper, three-pointed lily flower cut out to the center of the tag at a slight angle so it overlaps the top of the lily pad a bit and the right point almost touches the right side of the tag.
Mount the medium lily flower stamp from the Lovely Lily Pad Set on Block B so the detailed side of the stamp is the one you will be stamping. Ink up the stamp with the Pretty Peacock Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the 1-3/4" square of mottled pink with green and blue areas Lily Impressions Designer Paper.
Pick out the medium lily flower die from the Lily Pad Dies. Put it on top of the stamped medium lily flower image on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so it is centered over the image. Run through the tool.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the medium lily flower cut out to the center of the tag at a slight angle so it overlaps the top of the lily pad a bit, overlaps the left side of the copper flower cut out, and the left edge of the flower sticks over the left edge of the tag a bit.
Pick out the lily flower bracket die from the Lily Pad Dies. Put it on top of the 1" x 1-1/2" piece of Garden Green Cardstock on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the lily flower bracket cut out to the tag so it is centered under the medium lily flower cut out.
Pick out the strip of connected tear drop shapes die from the Lily Pad Dies. Put it on top of the long, skinny strip of Copper Foil Sheet on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces. Save the long strip of connected tear drop shapes and the long strip with the big scallops cut from the bottom of the die.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the long strip of copper connected tear drop shapes cut out to the tag so it covers the bottom seam between the designer paper and the green cardstock. Make sure the points of the tear drops are pointing up. It is okay if it overlaps the lily pad a bit. Use Paper Snips to carefully trim off excess foil sheet on the sides. Be careful not to cut the lily pad or lily flower.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the long strip of copper scallops cut out to the back of the tag so the scallops just peek out along the bottom edge. Use Paper Snips to carefully trim off excess foil sheet on the sides. Be careful not to cut the lily pad or lily flower.
Adhere the tag to the front of the treat bag at a slight angle.
Pick out a white Mini Library Clip. Attach it to the top of the bag at the top of the tag.
Cut a 3-1/2" piece of the Old Olive/Pretty Peacock 3/8" Reversible Ribbon.
Tie a half knot in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon knot to the top of the tag just below the library clip.
