I am so excited to be here with you guys. If you did not start with Robyn's blog-then click HERE
Thank you for visiting me from Raechel's blog...
- I really love to make bags with Tags, Bags, Boxes and More using 12x24 cardstock. When doing this make sure you change your mat size each time you insert your paper. Also set your machine on Fit to Page-Watch the size as it flashes on the screen. Mine cut at 11 1/2 inches...
- The handle is my little cheater way of designing my own ribbon. (ha, ha) I love both colors of ribbon so I just used adhesive and applied to the back of the turquoise ribbon and place in the center of the brown dot ribbon (Brown dot ribbon is from Michael's and the turquoise is from Joanne's)
This paper is Gabrielle from BoBunny. |
- There are soo many beautiful sheets to this paper. The sheets have butterflies that are spread throughout the paper. I just cut several of the butterflies from the sheet then added ink & stickles. When I attached them to the paper I only put the adhesive on the body of the butterfly so that the wings could be bent to give the project dimension.
This is just another close up of the project.
- I wanted you to see a close up of the ribbon. This is really easy to do. I just started at the top (inside of the purse) and gathered a few pleats and applied adhesive (fabric-tac). I continued until I got to the bottom. And of course-I added a little bling.
Hope you enjoyed my gift bag. Make sure you leave a comment. I also want to let you know that when I hit my goal of 1500 followers-I will have some big blog candy..Make sure you check back....
Now to your next blog Sonia and just click HERE and make sure you also show some love to our Guest Blogger-Kristal.................Wahooooo! Congrats to her!
I am giving you the blog order just in case you get lost.....
Have a super weekend.----Wendy-Bling Queen
