Gorgeous Gift Bag

Isn't this cute!?  New purse or gift bag?  Both!  One of my SU! teammates came up with this idea.....not sure who, so I can't give credit by name.  Sorry!  Sooo simple!  2 sheets of black 12 x 12 cardstock, whatever DSP that you love for the patterned strip across the front of the purse, another thin strip of patterned DSP to crimp and create the flower, an antique brad and the bag on the inside!  Went to my favorite dollar store, Dollar Tree, and purchased their very sturdy gift bags (2 for $1).  I cut the top off and then adhered the black paper to it.  I know that you can get gift bags cheaper, but Dollar Tree sells them in a variety of colors that match all of our DSP!  Wouldn't this make a great best girlfriend gift bag?  A great gift bag for your bridesmaids?  A new mom gift bag?  A mother's day gift bag?  Best yet, a Valentine's gift bag?  The possibilities are endless!!!

Fall Fun with Cork

On Saturday, I attended my RemARKable Stampers team meeting!  What a fabulous group of women that I got to spend the day with!  Isn't this card so simple but cute?  This is one of the make and takes that we did at our meeting.  I just purchased theBig Shot die cut that includes this leaf and it is cut out in cork!  Love the texture and dimension that the cork gives to the card. And the Autumn Spice Designer Series Paper is great for Fall projects too!  Shhh.....I think we will be making a project next month at our Hostess Club using this die and the cork!  Enjoy it!
