Hi everyone, Laurel here. When I saw the sketch I thought it would be such a great way to use up some of the scraps that I had leftover from other projects. I dug out my Vintage Christmas collection and went to work.
Did you know that sketches can be used for anything? They aren't only for cards or layouts...they are for whatever your heart desires.
I decided to use the sketch as a jumping off point for this gift bag.
Supplies:Vintage Christmas: 6 X 6 pad; Sticker Accessories; Chipboard Accessories; Decorative Brads; Decorative Buttons; Layered Stickers; Faceted Gems;Misc:SRM clear stickers, May Arts twine
First off, I cut a piece of kraft cardstock to cover the front of the bag. All of the pieces of paper used for this were scraps and it felt so good to use them up! I trimmed and adhered them using the sketch as a guide. I then just did some random stitching to make sure they were held in place well.
I then added the embellishments, here and there until I was happy with how they looked.
Finally I added some twine, clear stickers and vellum snowflakes to finish it off.
I love the dimension this bag has and I can’t wait to package something up in it this Christmas.
Thanks for stopping by today!
