Hello Crafty Friends!!

Larissa here today to share a Trio of BEAUTIFUL Foiled & Glittered Felt Pumpkin Treat Bags along with Coffee Gift Tags!! SQUEAL!! These are the SWEETEST Gift Presentation to Give to a SPECIAL Coffee Loving Friend, because not only can they be used to Package a Gift Card, Tea Packets, Sweet Treats or ANYTHING else your Heart desires but they can also be used for Decorations afterward!! One of my FAVORITE Parts about making Projects like this!!

Felt and Foiled Pumpkin Treat Bags


There are SO MANY POSSIBILITIES with Felt and one of my NEW FAVORITE Techniques is Stenciling and Foiling onto Felt with the Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo!! If you’re NOT into Stenciling and Foiling, but still LOVE the look of SPARKLE try adding the Glitter Dust Glitter Spray to your Felt Projects to add that touch of Sparkle!! SWOON!! Either way, you can’t go WRONG and I’m SURE the Recipients will fill your LOVE shining through when they receive a gift like this!!

I Started by Cutting my Felt Circles using some of the STUNNING Felt from our Friends at Benzie Design!! I’m using some of my FAVORITE Fall Colors for 2021!! They’re all included in the Autumn Equinox Color Palette (Pumpkin, Meadow & Grapefruit) I cut 10-inch Circles and then used my Crop-a-Dile Punch and Punched a hole every 2 inches around the inside of the Circles!!

I Started with the Grapefruit Circle and Sprayed a Generous Amount of the Glitter Dust Glitter Spray in Iridescent all over the outside of the Felt!!
TIP: The Spray will go one a little Cloudy and Tacky to the touch!! NO WORRIES though, just set it aside to dry completely and it will Dry Clear and not tacky!! In the Light, the Iridescent Glitter Sparkles so BEAUTIFULLY!! SWOON!! Just makes me Heart HAPPY and it’s such a SIMPLE Step!!

I used some Burlap Twine and an Embroidery Needle to add a Running Stitch through the Wholes in the Top of the Felt Circle to create my Felt Pumpkin Treat Bag!! Add your Goodies or a Gift Card to the center of the Pumpkin Bag and Pull the Burlap Twine Tight!! I Tied a Knot in the Burlap!! I Die Cut some Felt Leaves using a Sizzix Tim Holtz Poinsettia Die and used Hot Glue to adhere them to the top of the Pumpkin!!


In order to make the Burlap Twine Ends resemble Pumpkin Vine Tendrils, I applied some Ultra Bond Adhesive to the ends of the Burlap Twine!! Rubbing my Fingers down along the Twine to coat the Twine completely with the Ultra Bond Adhesive!! Then I used 2 Sharpie Markers to wrap the coated Twine around and let it dry!! Once completely dry I removed the Markers and have the most ADORABLE Pumpkin Vine Tendrils!!

I created the SWEETEST Little Coffee Mug Gift Tag using a Die from Trinity Stamps!! These Dies are SPECIAL Dies that are given for FREE with purchases from Trinity Stamps!! Each Month for the entire Year a NEW Coffee Cup Die will be Given!! This is the FREE Cut for the Month of September!! I Die Cut some Mini Gift Tags from the Trinity Stamps 2020 Trinity Mini Tags Collection Die Set and then Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment onto the Tag from the Trinity Stamps A Sentiment for (almost) Everything Stamp Set!! I adhered it to the Pumpkin with a Zots Glue Dot and then added a FUN Acorn Jingle Bell that I picked up at a Craft Store to finish off the Design!!

For the Next Pumpkin Treat Bag, I Started by Spraying the backside of the NND Lace Floral Stencil with Pixie Spray and then adhered it onto the Pumpkin Felt Circle and pressed it firmly into place!! Then I took the Stencil Pal and applied a thin layer of Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo to the Stencil!!

I removed the Stencil and SWOON!! Just look how BEAUTIFUL that Stenciled Design is on the Felt!! Then I set it aside to dry completely!!

Once the Gel is completely dry, it will be Clear!! I then took a piece of the NEW Brutus Monroe Copper Ripple Deco Foil and placed it over the Stenciled Design and ran it through my Laminating Machine!!

I removed the Negative Foil Sheet and SWOON!! Just look at that STUNNING Stenciled and Foiled Design!! I LOVE how the Foil Shines in person!! It has an Iridescent Shine that is just AMAZING!! I used some Burlap Twine and an Embroidery Needle to add a Running Stitch through the Wholes in the Top of the Felt Circle to create my Felt Pumpkin Treat Bag!! Add your Goodies or a Gift Card to the center of the Pumpkin Bag and Pull the Burlap Twine Tight!! I Tied a Knot in the Burlap!! I Die Cut some Felt Leaves using a Sizzix Tim Holtz Poinsettia die and used Hot Glue to adhere them to the top of the Pumpkin!!

Again I wanted the Burlap Twine Ends to resemble Pumpkin Vine Tendrils, I applied some Ultra Bond Adhesive to the ends of the Burlap Twine!! Rubbing my Fingers down along the Twine to coat the Twine completely with the Ultra Bond Adhesive!! Then I used 2 Sharpie Markers to wrap the coated Twine around and let it dry!! Once completely dry I removed the Markers and have the most ADORABLE Pumpkin Vine Tendrils!!

For the Coffee Gift Tag, I used another Trinity Stamps Coffee Die and Die Cut it from White Cardstock!! Then I used the NEW Gina K. Designs Stamp-n-Stencil Craft Kit, Gnome for the Holidays: Festive Add-On Set!! I Stamped the Pumpkin Image with Wild Honey and Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide Inks and the Pumpkin Stem & Tendril with Peeled Paint and Lucky Clover!! I used Copic Markers in N0 & N3 to add some shading to the Coffee Mug!! I Die Cut some Mini Gift Tags from the Trinity Stamps 2020 Trinity Mini Tags Collection Die Set and then Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment onto the Tag from the Trinity Stamps A Sentiment for (almost) Everything Stamp Set!!

I adhered it to the Pumpkin with a Zots Glue Dot and then added a FUN Acorn Jingle Bell that I picked up at a Craft Store to finish off the Design!! How BEAUTIFUL is this!!?? SQUEAL!! Just makes me HAPPY!!


For the Meadow Felt Pumpkin, I used a now retired Gina K. Designs Stencil, but ANY Stencil Design in your Stash would work!! Again I Sprayed the backside of the Stencil with Pixie Spray and then adhered it onto the Pumpkin Felt Circle and pressed it firmly into place!! Then I took the Stencil Pal and applied a thin layer of Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo to the Stencil!!

Once the Gel is completely dry, it will be Clear!! I then took a piece of the NEW Brutus Monroe Pewter Ripple Deco Foil and placed it over the Stenciled Design and ran it through my Die Cutting Machine!!
TIP: You can use either a Laminating Machine or a Die Cutting Machine in order to Foil the Stenciled Design onto the Felt!! I used both methods just to show the different results!!

After running it through my Die Cutting Machine I removed the Negative Foil Sheet and SWOON!! I LOVE the results!!

For the Coffee Gift Tag, I used another Trinity Stamps Coffee Die and Die Cut it from White Cardstock!! Then I used the NEW Gina K. Designs Stamp-n-Stencil Craft Kit, Gnome for the Holidays: Festive Add-On Set!! I Stamped the Pumpkin Image with Bundled Sage and Pine Needles Distress Oxide Inks and the Pumpkin Stem & Tendril with Olive Branch and Rusty Hinge!! I used Copic Markers in N0 & N3 to add some shading to the Coffee Mug!! I Die Cut some Mini Gift Tags from the Trinity Stamps 2020 Trinity Mini Tags Collection Die Set and then Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment onto the Tag from the Trinity Stamps A Sentiment for (almost) Everything Stamp Set!!
I adhered it to the Pumpkin with a Zots Glue Dot and then added a FUN Acorn Jingle Bell that I picked up at a Craft Store to finish off the Design!! How BEAUTIFUL is this!!?? SQUEAL!! Just makes me HAPPY!!
