"He has Risen" Goodie Bags for Pre-School Class

Pin It




Hi everyone!  


Easter is another favorite holiday for my family and it is a time we focus on doing more for others and less for ourselves -- just like Jesus gave His life for.  The More Faithful Sayings stamp set by My Pink Stamper is just what I needed to make these adorable treat bags below.  I was TOTALLY thrilled to see the "He has Risen" stamp included on this set.  This is what I know each and every day of my life.  This stamp set totally ROCKs!


I created these goodie bags for Spencer's classmates and a few friends.  I hope you enjoy them.  If this project looks a little familiar it may be because I was totally inspired to use the little faces on my eggs just like I did for my Easter Eggs Family Card.  Thank you all so very much for your super sweet feedback on that project.  :) 


For this project:


I started with plain white envelopes, sealed the back and cut the envelope in half (making 2 pockets).






  • I started with plain white envelopes (letter size), sealed the back and cut the envelope in half to make 2 separate pockets.
  • The eggs were cut from the Easter 2010 cricut cartridge at 1 3/4".
  • Grass is also cut from the Easter 2010 cricut cartridge at 2 " -- white Galaxy marker for doodling.
  • Blue Egg - Everyday Character Assortment by Peachy Keen Stamps
  • Pink Egg - Happy Lashes by Peachy Keen Stamps
  • I used my white gelly roll pen for white of eyes and chalk for the rosy red cheeks.

  • Using my Imagine I pulled the cross from the Easter 2010 cricut cartridge and flood-filled it with a pattern paper from the Imagine cartridge - Country Carnival -- page 49.  The cross is cut at 4.6 
  • I used a brown marker to make the doodling on the cross.
  • "He has Risen" and He Lives stamps are from the More Faithful Sayings by My Pink Stamper.


  • I added an orange ribbon to each bag for a handle.  You can insert it on each side of the inside of the envelope (I attached it with snail adhesive).  

I really think Spencer's classmates will love them.....especially that the "boy egg" is winking at the "girl" egg - HA!

See ya soon!

  1. Hi Tracy!! These are ADORABLE!! My kids go to public school so we can't prepare projects like these (so wish I could) but we did make some cute bunnies for the classmates (they'll be posted on my blog in the morning).

    You did wonderful as always. I love the doodling, the goody bags and the creative use of an envelope! :)

  4. I love this project and never thought of using an envelope for a pocket. Too Cool. I have been looking for some cross designs and haven't been able to find any. You did an awesome job!
