Hello Everyone and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!!
I have some exciting news to share with all of you! It has been a wonderful couple days for our family. My daughter gave birth to a healthy baby girl last night and we are all doing the happy dance like crazy!!! This is our first Grandchild and we are so excited~ I am so proud of her and happy for her and her fiance. Arya Averie weighed 6 lb 11oz born on 11/11/11. She is absolutely beautiful! It's been a LONG couple days but before I take off to go see my little princess, I wanted to share a quick project with you that I made:)
I have made another gift bag similar to the one last week. I got the idea from Robin's Creative Cottage . For the details/video on these adorable bags, check it out HERE . These are the perfect size for a small gift or to add a yummy treat inside. What I love most is, you can decorate them for ANY occasion. Don't ya just love that?
I made the box according to Robin's directions. I cut out the Pilgrim at 4 1/2 plus the layers from the Paper Dolls cartridge and the turkey was cut at 3 1/2. I used Peachy Keen Stamps ~Princess face set for the darling face. The curly label die cut is from My Creative Time and the sentiment is from K Andrew Designs ~Fall-o-ween set. I used goblin green crinkle ribbon from 3 Girl JAM and honey dew bakers twine is from Scrappy Moms . I hope I have inspired you some and you go check out these boxes. They are so much fun to make!
I am also entering this in the following challenges:
1.) Scrappy Moms-Terrific Tuesday ~ 3D that uses twine and/or a button
2.) Whimsical Designs ~ Thanksgiving Day theme
3.) Cindy's Scraptastic Designs-Scraptastic Monday ~Gift bag or box-Thanksgiving theme
4.) Paper Playtime ~Challenge #60-Thank You project
5.) Crafty Ribbon ~Challenge #6- Anything but a card
Thanks for visiting,
Sherrie K
