Gift Bags for Fall

I love to take a small gift when I am invited to dinner, lunch, a small gathering to the host. It could be teas, coffee, chocolates depending on what the event is or who the host is.  When I take these gifts, I like to put them in a gift bag.  I used to only make my gift bags in a pinch when I did not have time to run to the store and pick a gift bag up.  Now I make them ahead and have them on hand.  I make them for all occasions, Birthdays, Christmas and host gifts.  Today I am using A Cozy Fall Harvest with a few tags from the At Home Fall Harvest digital paper collections for the Fall and Thanksgiving season. 

Other supplies:
Cropadile
Gold wide tip Sharpie
Adhesive
Bags
Ribbon

Twine

 

First, I fussy cut flowers, leaves from the A Cozy Fall Harvest and tags from the At Home Fall Harvest. 

Then I created tags for each of the bags with the fussy flowers, leaves and tags.  Using a cropadile punch a hole for the twine used to hang the tag from the handle of the bag!

You can recycle any for this project, I am covering the logos on them. If I would like specific colors I may pick up a package of small bags a the dollar store.  

I printed panels to adhere to the front of the bags and the tags coordinated with the panels. The gnome panel has a gnome tag.

The fox panel has a fox tag. The papers for the panels were digitally reduced in size to fit the bags. 

The sunflowers have a sunflower tag. Each tag has twine 

The pumpkins have a pumpkin tag. This panel also has a large mat as it will go on a larger bag. 

 

                      

                            

I will add a little tissue and a big bow. I wait to put the big bow on the bag until I am ready to use it for easy storage.  I cannot tell you the last time I bought gift wrap, except for tissue paper. 

Hope you enjoyed these gift bags.

A Card using the NEW Fall Harvest Junk Journal Digital Papers

 I love working with papers.  Digital papers are even more fun. Why you ask?  Well, for one I can reprint my papers over and over.  Better I can resize images.  Fuzzy cutting is very relaxing to me. I can sit for hours and cut away.  Today I am sharing a card created with a stenciled master board, stamps and the FALLHARVEST Junk Journal Papercrafts Digital Papers!  

Digital Download Print at Home FALL HARVEST Junk Journal Papercrafts Paper Pack 

Blank Page Muse Digi Paper and Stamps Used:
Digital Download Print at Home FALL HARVEST Junk Journal Papercrafts Paper Pack
Grunge Backgrounds #2, Texture stamps, wet cement, pattern
Vintage style Postcards background Art Rubber Stamps TTS114-01 - Blank Page Muse Art Rubber Stamps
Fantasy Flourish Stencil 

Other Products Used
Tim Holtz Distress Vintage Photo ink
Blending brush
Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Glitter Paste-Graceful Mustard
Spatula
Tim Holtz Distress Spray Lost Shadow
Cosmic Shimmer Airless Spray Amber Lights
Master Board made with scrap paper on Watercolor paper
Gold wide tip Sharpie

To start create a masterboard. Use watercolor paper or other mixed media paper for the base.  Glue scraps of paper to the base.  Add washi tape if desired. Make sure all edges are secure.

Pictured is the master board. It is on watercolor paper.  There are scraps from decorative bags, scraps of pattern cardstock and washi tape.

Apply Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Glitter Paste-Graceful Mustard using the Blank Page Muse Fantasy Flourish Stencil.   Let it dry. This adds a nice background texture. 

Prepare images to use on projects.  Fussy cut what you would like to use.  resize some of the papers before printing if desired. 

Grunge Backgrounds #2, Texture stamp and the Vintage style Postcards background Art Rubber Stamp Add a little distress stamping to the images.

Pictured are the fussy cut images used for this card. The dress with wings. the dress with one pumpkin, card with sunflower, two partial sunflowers, tow resized pumpkins. 

First adhere the dress with wings and the large sunflower directly behind the neck of the dress... With dimensional foam adhere the dress without wings to the dress with wings. Thes creates a 3D effect. Tuck the sunflower card under the right side of the dress without wings. Place the two pumpkins, with dimensional foam on half of the pumpkins not attached to the dress and a touch of glue where they are touching the dress.  Tuck the small partial sunflower behind the pumpkin on the left. 

I encourage you to download some digital papers and create with them.  I print my images on a mate photo paper.

String Art With a Stencil

 Hello! I created another project using the Blank Page Muse Pumpkin Trio Stencil.
The first card (see here) involved using a stylus and fussy cutting.

 Today's project involves using a paper piercer and stitching. I hope you like it.

I positioned the stencil on a kraft cardstock. I used the largest pumpkin for my project. I created a landscaped card so the pumpkin is on the top two thirds of the panel. Using the stencil as a guide, I poked holes on the kraft cardstock using a paper piercer. 

I made sure that I poke holes on the corners of the open area of the stencil. I avoided poking holes too close to each other to avoid ripping the paper during stitching.

I used the stencil to guide me in stitching.

 I used a DMC Variegated Floss to add interest to the stitched image.

I colored the stitch pumpkin with mica paint. 

To add a fabric feel on the stitched panel, I ran this through my die cutting machine using a texture plate. 

The sentiment was also poked using an alphabet stencil. I blended ink around the pumpkin to mute down the bright kraft cardstock. I added a strip of cardstock to the right of the panel.

What a great way to stretch this stencil! I always like it when I can create several things using a product.
