Brenda has more projects up her sleeve. Last week she made some pretty cards, this week you will see a beautiful gift bag and layout. The gift bag can be done in many different colour schemes and adjusted to different occasions.
Welcome to the neighborhood gift bag:
“Gift bags are easy to dress up when you need a gift on the spur of the moment. I dressed mine up by stamping the neighborhood stamp numerous times for a fun background. I also highlighted a few of the buildings by stamping again onto white card stock and punching them out with circle stamps in a few different sizes and attaching them with foam dots. Some vintage buttons and a sentiment finish it off well.”


Down Town page:
“These stamps were perfect to use on my page about spending a day shopping down town. I used the stamps on my tag by stamping them onto various strips of patterned paper and adhering them to my tag. I also used the stamps as a border along the right hand side. I love to try to find lots of different uses for one stamp. They can stretch a long way. I love the way these stamps worked here.”
