I am amazed of how many cute freebies are out there – just for the taking. I mean – the designer put in a lot of effort in it, just to give it away. If that isn’t generosity, I don’t know what is.
Now go grab a cuppa – this is a bit long 😀
Today I want to show some more tiny and not so tiny freebies I found and made and I want to start off with the not so tiny freebies 😀
This one has a bit of a story to it as my neighbors – the kindest, nicest people ever – has a bit funny last name and going through an add for a supermarket yesterday, I found a red wine with …. well their last name on it. So I just had to buy it and give it to them….because of the name 😀
Their last name is Barfod (Barefoot) and it means the same – naked foot 🙂 So it couldn’t be anymore perfect 🙂
So here is where the freebie comes into the picture; I made the Elegant Grapes Gift Tag freebie from SVGCuts to tie onto the bottle. The tag is enlarged somewhat to fit the bottle.
I made it from AC Cardstock in Leaf, Olive, Wine, Eggplant, Pansy and Plum and I doodled some reflections onto the grapes with a white Sharpie. Then I tied it onto the bottle with some raffia and it’s ready to go next door 🙂
Next I made a Spring Picture using the Tulip with Frame freebie (found under square frames) and Label 8 freebie (found under Labels) from Bird’s Cards:
This made from AC Cardstock in Banana, Spinach, Peacock and Turf along with patterned paper from Graphic 45’s “Fairie Dust” collection and some purple pearl paper.
I made the Tulip frame larger to fit into the shadow box (from IKEA) and enlarged the label as well to fix the scale.
I added pop dots to the tulips flower head for dimension and to the top layer of the tag as well.
The quote is written with a Silhouette Sketch pen – the text is tripled and placed side to side very close to make it more visible.
Finally I added a small bird into the shadowbox frame along with the picture and it is so cute.
And now to the tiny freebies 🙂
Let’s start of with the Cozy Socks Gift Box freebie from SVGCuts
I downsized it by 50% and since socks doesn’t fit into a box this small, I used some Werther’s Original candies instead. After I had put in the acetate window, I realized it could also be used for small paper tissues 😀
I used AC Cardstock in Black along with patterned paper from Graphic 45’s “Artisan Style” collection and a small piece of acetate for the window.
A cute, simple and very easy box to make – especially if you’re making lots.
Then I made the very cute Tote Bag freebie from Bird’s Cards:
This one is downsized by 25% and is made of AC Cardstock in Wave along with patterned paper from Graphic 45’s “Sun Kissed” collection.
I chose to make panels for the inside of the bag too and tied two small sea shell charms onto the bag with a ball chain.
Just perfect for a gift card or maybe for the kids’ beach keepsakes 😉
I also made the same bag downsized by 50%:
This one is pretty small and I thought it would be awesome as a place card for the Summer party or Confirmation.
It’s made of AC Cardstock in Wave and patterned paper also from Graphic 45’s “Sun Kissed” collection.
I fussy cut the sea turtle and pop dotted him onto the bag.
The tag is actually also a freebie from Bird and I used a sketch pen to write the name onto it and some twine to tie it to the bag handle with a pop dot on the back 😉
The next freebie has kinda the same theme going on:
This is the Clamshell Box freebie from Simply Crafty Svgs and this is the original size!
I used AC Cardstock in Grape Fruit along with patterned paper from Graphic 45’s “By the Sea” collection. The small gem is from Prima.
A very cute and useful freebie that can also be used for sea shells or maybe some other beach treasures.
Finally I made the gorgeous Night & Day Trinket Box freebie from Dreaming Tree:
This was the perfect design to used with the Graphic 45 “Midnight Masquerade” collection paper along with glitter paper in Teal and Gold.
The box is downsized to 75% of the original size
A very easy box to make and what a cutie!!!
Well….that was it for today.
I hope you’ve enjoyed the freebies or actually….. I hope you WILL enjoy the freebies as I have and please don’t forget to leave me a small comment when you leave ❤

All of your projects are wonderful but I do love the way you’ve lined the gift bags, it’s not something I would ordinarily do but it really does make them look very special and I’m sure they are sturdy little things with the extra layers.
Thanks so much Helle 🙂
