Hey, hey! How are you doing? I'm enjoying my time off (while it still lasts). Me and my sweetie were planning to do some short trips around the country, but the weather forcast hasn't been very nice and we didn't want to spend another day at home, so yesterday we decided that we'll go on a "trip" to Ikea instead. This isn't bad either, right? ;) We bought some decorations for our home and I did some clothes shopping in the nearby shopping center as well.
Anyways, I was also able to do some crafting in the last couple of days. I wanted to do something a little bit different, so I made a gift bag. This was so fun to make. It's the first gift bag I made out of a brown paper bag, but definitely not the last. You'll definitely be seeing more of those in the future. ;)
What do you think? I was really pleased with how it turned out. I really like this Mo Manning image. Isn't it adorable? Just too cute! I coloured it with distress inks and I added stickles on the wings. Papers are from Magnolia (Summer memories collection). I've had this big lace in my stash for a while, but wasn't sure what to do with it, because I thought it was a little bit too big for the cards, but I think it's perfect for this paper bag. And on top of it I added some red lace from my stash as well. All of the flowers are from my stash and so are the doily and the red ribbon. The dies I used on this project are from Spellbinders, TH, Cart Us and Quick Kutz. Butterflies were made with my craft punch.
And here's the close up of an image ...
Have a wonderful day! Hugs! xx
