For now though, I do have my Mom's gift purchased and I needed something special to wrap it in. So what better than a brown paper bag...with a few trimmings. I find these come in very handy, and can be re-gifted in future years.
This is the front, and you lift the framed image up to open. The paper bag is cut to the desired size, and then a folded topper is made, to be attached to the finished back.
This is the finished back.
Here is a close up of the image, coloured with copics and trimmed with some glitter.
These are quite fun to make and are well received by the recipients....something a little different.
Supplied used:
Magnolia stamp - Secret Tilda
Basic Grey papers - Eskimo Kisses collection
Stampendous sentiment stamp - Hugs for All
Spellbinders die - Labels Eight
Glitter paper, snowflake stickers, gems and bow - all from my stash
I realized as I put that list together, I've had nearly all that product for ages...it could almost be vintage! (lol) Thanks for visiting, and here's hoping you have a wonderful day.
Some challenges for my project:
