My daughters birthday is in three weeks, so I thought I’d get a move on with her party favor bags.  There won’t be very many kids at her party — she’s the first grandchild on both sides of our families — so we thought we’d do something a bit different.  We’re having a big dessert buffet in addition to the food we’ll be serving, and her cake and ice cream.  We’re making all sorts of goodies, like s’mores pops and oreo pops, and a friend is making glittery Minnie Mouse shaped cookies.  We’ll also have candy and other treats.  I know there’s going to be way too much food, so we decided to pass out Kraft favor bags so our guests can take home the left over treats.  Who doesn’t want to take home s’mores and cookies?!
My initial thought was to buy a decorative lace border punch and punch the bags through the top.  I bought all my supplies and went to work… only to find out that my lace punch and my Kraft bags didn’t get along.  The bags are too thick for the punch to go through!  I was forced to come up with a last minute Plan B… and I’m much happier with this than my original plan!

Each Favor Label is a finished size of 4.25×4.25, and are sized to print four per page.
