Of course, each set needed some kind of packaging for presentation, so I altered the basic "tote" pattern to fit my sets of 3" x 6" cards and came up with these. They were *so* much fun to make and decorate!! I also made a coordinating gift tag to go with each bag. The DSP all came from the Target Dollar Spot last month, as did the coordinating embellishments (four to a pack) that I used on the gift tags, and the coordinating satin ribbon that I used for the handles of each tote.

Emily! These are terrific! I love how you coordinated the totes, notes (hey that rhymes - HA!) and tags. And you found such lovey paper at Target? Why doesn't ours eer get such nice paper. I am sure the lucky recipients will be touched by your kindness.

What fabulous colours! A great gift. It's very inspiring as I prepare to make thank you gifts for my son's kindy teachers. I'll have to pay more attention at my local dollar shop :-)
