So I've been working hard on getting the gift bags done for my sister's upcoming wedding, and the pressure's on... so please forgive this photo heavy post-- but I've gotta share all the work I've been doing, b/c you, my blogging friends, will appreciate it. And if you love all these come back tomorrow, for "just call me bag lady, part 2".
I threw in a few challenges with my bags, just to keep things interesting. This bag uses the Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge as a source of inspiration. I've used a layer of felt under the pine cone and a ribbon tab from the inspirational photo. Loving my new Paper Smooches Geo-Graphic stamps.
These two bags work for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge. I've used the WMS Very Vintage Label #1.
And this just goes to show that when I recruit helpers that I can mass produce, but only when there's someone sitting across the table from me keeping me on track. So anyone have a guess how many I have left to make???
Materials for various bags: Impress Stamps pine cone, Waltzingmouse Stamp Very Vintage Label 1, Paper Smooches Geo-graphic background stamp, Skipping Stones Grunge background stamp, PTI kraft and dark chocolate and cream card stock, Spellbinders Nestabilites Labels 1 and 8, PTI Mat Stack 4 and 5 dies, PTI double sided banner die, Versafine black ink, Tim Holtz distress inks gathered twigs and antique linen, Tim Holtz distress stain antique linen, Tim Holtz woodgrain embossing folder, Smooch Vanilla Ice spritz, Tattered Angels graphite mister, Fiskars corner rounder, Coredinations card stock, May Arts natural twine, PTI edgers die, PTI Tag It Sale die, PTI kraft felt, PTI kraft ribbon, kraft bags from Ben Franklin, kraft boxes
