#1 Stampin’ Up! UK Demonstrator Pootles – Seasonal Scene Stamped Gift Bag Tutorial
When I first saw the Life Is Beautiful stamp set in the new Mini Catalogue, of course, I instinctively thought of cards, but as someone more known for bags and boxes than cards, I decided to be a little different with my crafting and use of the set.
Because it is very seasonal in design, I felt it would be a great front for a bag, and with all those lovely little images to represent the seasons, it was easy to create an image.
Granted, I hadn’t considered that the snowflakes aren’t actually meant to go on the tree, but more around it, but heck, I’m creative and allowed a little artistic licence now and again….
So I’m curious, what is your favourite season?
Mine would be Winter, although more specifically Christmas, and then snow. I love snow and we so rarely get it. There’s a possibility if we had it all the time, I may love it a little less…!

Lovely bags! I live where it snows a lot, and I don’t enjoy it much at all. I used to like snow, but we have way too much of it here where I live now. I never even thought much about the snowflakes being ON the tree, just that they were falling around the tree, I think it looks lovely.
