I generally do all my "Bag Topper" on my computer with graphics, etc. But you can also rubber stamp them. This one was designed on a 3 X 6" piece of cardstock. Type the verse on half of the piece (3") then stamp an appropriate picture on the other half (3") of the piece. Make sure the verse is at the top of the piece and done upside down.
Picture is done on the bottom of the piece right side up. That way when you fold them in half they will both be going the same way. I attach these to the baseball card protection sheets (you can find these at Walmarts) they are the perfect size.
The verse I did says...
"Because you are nervous on the first day of school too,
I packaged some "Hugs" in hopes that they might help you.
Teachers can't live on Apples alone, they need hugs too."

Then insert Hershey hugs into the bag.
