This gift bag and tag was inspired by Diana Gibbs, and I recreated it a few times over as gifts for my guests at the Hamilton Extravaganza last Sunday. They certainly loved receiving chocolate!

Packaging the Easter eggs was the easy part! The tag took a little more time, especially the pretty watercoloured flower. Here's some creative tips to recreate the flower...

• Stamp the single stem from the Birthday Blooms stamp set onto Watercolor Paper; stamping with Basic Black Archival Ink so the black ink doesn't bleed or run when watercolouring.
• With an Aqua Painter, start with a lighter undercoat of pale inks over the stamped image using Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz. Then add deeper shadows using Lost Lagoon and Mossy Meadow inks.
• Once the watercolouring is dry, fussy-cut around the image along the outline, leaving no border. Add to tag with Stampin' Dimensionals.
