birthday wishes

Hello! I hope you are having a lovely weekend :) I thought I’d pop in today to share a little card and gift bag I put together. Here let me show you first and then I will get chatting!



LIDbow gift

I really wanted to have a go at cutting the new Lil’ Inker bows from felt. I had some lovely thick cream felt from Papertrey Ink that just fit the bill perfectly. I tied a wooden button around the bow with some rustic twine and loved the result! I then remembered the little jute gift bag I had stashed away - what a lovely combination they made. I added a sentiment flag stamped with the “to/from” out of the flags and tags stamp set. I was so happy with this rustic little gift bag but it needed a card to go with it. So I put together another bow and got out some kraft card. I embossed the kraft to give a texture which in my mind fitted with the jute bag. I mounted the kraft onto some card and popped it up on the card base with dimensionals, added the bow and stamped a sentiment from flags and tags to finish it off.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!
