A Rather Lovely Gingham Gift Bag Tutorial – #1 Stampin’ Up! UK Demonstrator Pootles
Well, when Oliver set me a brief of ‘checked flowers’ this is what I came up with!
It’s fascinating crafting to an 11 year old boy’s ideas and I love the challenge that it gives me. Makes me think outside of the metaphorical box so to speak!
So when he said that he wanted me to make a project with checked flowers, I admit that I cheated a little, but I am making it work!
And I also decide to challenge myself a little further by using Pale Papaya and Tahitian Tide. 2 colours that I don’t use much at all, but look rather lovely with each gift bag.
The flowers were a total win with the flowers and leaves punch, and I think they finish the gift bag off nicely!
And while I remember, here are the links to the magnets I use
