3. Mount the "words fail to express my gratitude" sentiment from the Simply Zinnia Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Petunia Pop Ink Pad. Stamp it in the lower right corner of the Pretty In Pink card front.

4. Adhere the strips of Petunia Pop glimmer paper to the back of the pink striped Unbounded Beauty Designer Paper strip so just about 1/4" of glimmer paper shows along the top long edge and the bottom long edge and the right and left edges are all even.

5. Adhere the matted designer paper strip to the front of the stamped Pretty In Pink card front so the left and right edges are all even and the top of the matted designer paper strip is about 1/2" from the top of the card.

6. Pick out the large, solid flower die with slightly fatter petals from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of the Pretty In Pink cardstock square on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.

7. Pick out the large, solid flower die with slightly skinnier petals from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of one end of the Petunia Pop cardstock strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine leaving room to cut out a second flower. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces. Put the die back on the other end of the strip and cut a second Petunia Pop flower.

8. Adhere the Pretty In Pink and 2 Petunia Pop flower cut outs together so the are stacked on top of each other and slightly offset with the Pretty In Pink flower on the bottom

9. Pick out the small solid flower center die from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of the small Petunia Pop glimmer paper square on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.

10. Pick out the small, ringed flower center die from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of the small Pretty In Pink glimmer paper strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.

11. Adhere the solid glimmer paper flower center cut out to the center of the stacked flowers.

12. Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the Pretty In Pink glimmer paper ringed flower center to the center of the stacked flower so it surrounds the solid Petunia Pop glimmer paper center.

13. Adhere the flower to the front of the card so it is centered on the designer paper strip on the left side as shown.

14. Pick out the large, solid leaf die from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of one end of the Shy Shamrock cardstock strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine leaving room to cut out a second leaf. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces. Put the die back on the other end of the strip and cut a second leaf.

15. Adhere the leaf cut outs to the card front as shown so they slightly overlap each other and the ends are tucked under the flower.

16. Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 2 Petunia Pop pearls from a sheet of Adhesive-Backed Pearl Trio making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the card front as shown in the upper right corner of the designer paper strip in a straight line.

17. For the bag:

18. Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
    - 7-1/4" x 10" of pink brushstroke stripes design from Unbounded Beauty 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper
    - 2-1/2" square from Pretty In Pink Cardstock
    - 2-1/2" square from Petunia Pop Cardstock
    - 1" x 3-1/4" from Pretty In Pink Cardstock
    - 1-1/4" x 6-1/4" from Shy Shamrock Cardstock

19. Score the designer paper rectangle along one long edge at the 3/4" mark.

20. Score down at the 2-3/4" and 7-1/2" marks.

21. Fold on all score lines and use the Bone Folder to get sharp creases.

22. Use Paper Snips Scissors to cut off the two skinny flaps along the bottom on each side. Be sure to leave the center skinny flap in place. You can cut the edges at a sharp angle if you wish so you have cleaner edges along the bottom of the bag when it is assembled.

23. Put a strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive along one edge of the bag. Fold the bag together and seal in place with the Tear & Tape.

24. Put a strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive along the inside of the bottom flap of the bag. Fold the flap up and seal in place with the Tear & Tape.

25. Unlock the Happy Labels Pick A Punch. Slide one short edge of the 1" x 3-1/4" strip of Pretty In Pink cardstock into the right side of the punch (the side of the punch with the smaller scallops) as far as it will go and get it centered. Punch.

26. Mount the "thank you so much" sentiment from the Simply Zinnia Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Petunia Pop Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the punched Pretty In Pink strip so the punched edge is on the right side and the sentiment is closer to the punched edge.

27. Adhere the sentiment strip to the front of the bag so the punched edge is about 1/4" from the right edge of the bag and the bottom of the strip is about 1-1/2" from the bottom of the bag.

28. Mount the large, single zinnia flower image from the Simply Zinnia Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Petunia Pop Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the large Pretty In Pink square. Clean the stamp using the Simply Shammy and/or Stampin' Mist Stamp Cleaner and Stampin' Scrub, but leave it on the block.

29. Re-ink the large, single zinnia flower image on Block D with the Berry Burst Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the large Petunia Pop square. Clean the stamp using the Simply Shammy and/or Stampin' Mist Stamp Cleaner and Stampin' Scrub and put it away.

30. Pick out the matching, large, open, flower die from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of one of the stamped flowers on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the flower. Run through the machine. Repeat with the other flower.

31. Adhere the flower cut outs to the front of the bag as shown so they overlap each other a bit and cover the left end of the sentiment strip.

32. Pick out the large, solid leaf die from the Simply Zinnia Dies. Put it on top of one end of the Shy Shamrock cardstock strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine leaving room to cut out two more leaves. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces. Put the die back on the strip two more times to cut out a total of 3 leaves.

33. Adhere the leaves to the front of the bag as shown so the ends are tucked under the flowers and two of them overlap a bit.

34. Use a handheld circle punch to punch two holes in the top of the bag about 3/4" from the top so they are in the center and are about 1" apart.

35. Fill the bag with treats.

36. Cut a 15" piece of the gold ribbon from the Gold & Silver 1/8" Trim Combo Pack.

37. Feed the ends of the ribbon through the holes in the top of the bag from the back side. Tie in place with a big bow. Trim the ends.

38. Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 2 Petunia Pop pearls from a sheet of Adhesive-Backed Pearl Trio making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the front of the bag as shown in the flower centers.
