Gift bag

Hi everyone, I was at a loose end yesterday morning so decided to have a go at decorating a bag.

For this I measured the size of the bag and cut a piece of white card so it fits leaving a small border, inking the edges before putting onto the bag. After trimming a decorative paper I inked the edges and placed this on my first layer. I chose contrasting decorative papers to make the borders running across the bag, again inking the edges before placing onto my previous layer. I then made a topper from another piece of decorative paper, matting it onto pearlised card. I added a tag with a sentiment, which I threaded ribbon through to attach to my topper. I used foam pads to attach the topper to give a little more dimension. I added flowers, card candi and a die cut butterfly to finish.
