Here's a shout out to Little Miss Muffet's fearless leader, Barbara. She's been very sick the last few weeks and is hopefully on the road to a quick recovery.
Today instead of new images, the design team has created a lot of inspirational projects for you. Please be sure to visit them all and leave some love. You can find links to their blogs in my sidebar.
I decided to try something my teamie did a week or so ago and make a paper bag card. I doubt my attempt does it as much justice as Leah Anne's does.
I used Jada, who has just completed some retail therapy. I colored her with my Copic markers, cut out the image with my Labels 10 Nestie and created a sidewalk (which most of got cut off).
Here you can see how the gift card would fit into the "pocket" that's made by adhering the bottom flap of the paper bag.
And another pic of the gift card slot. Although I did not use the "pocket" on the front flap of the card, you can easily put inspirational quotes on tabs in there. I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
One Stop Craft: bingo (flowers/buttons/charms)
The Sweet Shop: sketch #140
I hope you have a wonderful Thursday!! Later chicas.
