Bag a Nature Girl! February Challenge Winner!

Hi BPM Fans!

I hope you are enjoying this months theme of "Anything But a Card"?

I really don't make a lot of cards I much prefer to make tags, bookmarks and journal pages and gift style items.

So today I am sharing a decorated gift bag using some fab stamps designed by Donna Gray and gorgeous patterned papers designed by Pam Bray!

Hope you enjoy the process and have some fun yourself and join our challenge - we always love to see what everyone is creating with Blank Page Muse Rubber Stamps!

Supplies:

Blank Page Muse Stamps: Nature Girl Set designed by Donna Gray

Blank Page Muse Supplies: Pam Bray Watercolours 6 x 6 Paper Pack

Black Ink Pad & White Card

Paper Gift Bag with Handles

Kraft coloured card

Copic markers or colouring medium of your choice

General supplies: scissors, paper cutter, double sided tape, glue, embellishments

Instructions:

Start by stamping the images you wish to use from the Nature Girl set, colour and fussy cut.

Using your choices of the patterned papers cut different size pieces and mount on slightly larger pieces of kraft card.

Arrange your layered pattern and plain paper squares onto one side of the paper bag and adhere using glue or double sided tape.

Arrange your fussy cut stamped and coloured images onto the layered gift bag front and adhere along with any other embellishments.

A perfect personalised gift bag for that special gift! This is a great bag decorating idea for any themed BPM stamps and any occasion!

Thanks for joining me today - hope you feel inspired to have a play yourself!

Happy stamping!

Guest Designer Sue and the March Challenge is...Anything but a Card!

Hey there. Sue Symens here again doing a guest post for the March Challenge here on the Blank Page Muse. The challenge for March is Anything But A Card. 
I decided to create a purse Post-It note holder.

I started with a 3” by 7.75” piece of kraft card stock. I scored it at 2”, 2.25”, 5.25” and 5.5”. I then stamped the outside of the card stock with the

Shorthand Writing Note Segment Background stamp in kraft ink.

 Then rounding the corners and inking the edges with the kraft ink also. I then stamped the 2.25” section with the girl image from the Nature Girl in black ink masking before stamping the wings.  I stamped the quote from the Set of 3 Sentiment Phrases in the same black ink on the 2” section.

I then colored the girl with alcohol markers and added the pad of Post-It notes to the inside. You can add a bit of Velcro or a magnet to the inside flap. This makes a fun little gift for family or friends.

Stamps used:
