Hi Dreamers,
I hope you are having a great weekend. How about a sweet treat bag today?!! I turned a plain Jane brown lunch sack into a fun and whimsical Halloween Treat Bag. I used stamps from Character Construction's Bird & Bee Paperie #16.
In this pic, you can see the lunch bag. I glued the Halloween DP to the front of the bad and then edge punched the top edge.
The Cute Cat Costume is paper pieced ---stamp the image on white CS (cut out) and again on the Halloween DP's. Cut out the shirt, skirt, legs, and bow tie. Glue all the pieces to the image stamped on white CS.
Layer on more Halloween DP and add the Cat Costume to the bag. Punch a hole in the side of the bag. Thread the ribbons through the hole and tie ribbon in a big bow. The sentiments were all cut from the Halloween DP.
I also made two cards that coordinate with my Treat bag. I have posted one of the cards here. I will post the other card next Sunday. So, check back for that.
