Good morning, on this nice, bright.....cold winter's day! I was really hoping the snow would melt away, but that hasn't happened. I will have to venture out today...still have to clean off the car even! Oh well, spring is only four months away? And of course, first we have Christmas!
Gone are the days when I used to make most of my Christmas gifts, but it's still nice to give a special homemade card or wrapping. Here is another gift bag, this one a little simpler as only the front is decorated. The bag is cut down in size and then the top is folded over. It then tucks behind the the matted image that is attached to the front of the bag with foam tabs. This makes for a nice simple closure.
The image has been coloured with copics, and I've added glitter to her wings. White paint softens the edges of the cardstock, while DI provides a bit more definition to the edges of the DP. I've also added some stickles and gems to the die cuts, but they don't show up too well in the photo.
Supplies used:
Wags and Whiskers image - Say a Prayer digi
MME Paper - 'Tis the Season collection
Memory Box dies - Madera Corner and Frosty Border
Now I just need to do some shopping to fill this little bag. Wish me luck! Thanks for stopping by, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Some fun challenges for my creation:

Gorgeously decorated Joyce and I live the richness of the red card and the lovely coloured DP. So the snow came to you hope it doesn't last for your months though. Stay warm and safe.
