Hello & Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
I'm back as the Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!
Today, I thought I would share a re-purpose idea that I had!
I saw these beautiful Fall Gift bags at the Dollar Tree -
I saw these beautiful Fall Gift bags at the Dollar Tree -
and thought... WOW! These would be beautiful on a card!
YUP! that's where I'm going with this...
Check out what I created --
So, to start I cut up the pretty gift bag - Then I sized it
to fit thru my sizzix machine where I used a Stitched Frame die
Then I had some DCWV Burlap paper and cut that down to size as well
I adhered them both together then I wrapped some
Orange Truffle Trendy Twine around the card front
I let that sit off to the side for a minute while
I used a couple different leaf punches I have with some
DCWV Fall designer paper and then I placed them on my card front
I knew I was going to use that sweet pie image from
the Perfect Pairs Planner Stamp set so I stamped
it on some Neenah solar white cardstock and colored
it with my Prismacolor pencils and some Gamsol
I used a Stitched Circle die to cut it out then I
die-cut another circle in brown cardstock
I adhered both together and then I grabbed the
Smile Stamp Set to add the Hello sentiment underneath the pie
I then added this to my card front using some dimensionals -
Once than was done, I attached some Fun Foam to the back of my card front
and adhered it to a dark brown card base -
I felt my card needed a little more, so I made a double bow and attached
it to the front of my card and then added some tiny sequins -
I'm super happy with how this card turned out and it's
ready to go out in the mail to someone special!!!
