I’ve made a Christmas present bag and a few Christmas playing cards…. let’s have a look.
I used to be somewhat overwhelmed with the dimensions of the present bag I acquired so determined to deconstruct it to make smaller ones.
So initially I rigorously opened up the big bag to see the way it was constructed after which created a template for a smaller model.
These two colors look nice on the brown paper of the bag. The Copper has a slight shimmer to it.
As soon as the paint was totally dry I rigorously scored the paper as per my template and reconstructed by bag – I used one deal with from the unique bag and made two smaller ones.
Now for my tags – which ended up as playing cards! I began with my gel plate, simply ‘messing round’ and seeing what occurred. I launched a 3rd color – PaperArtsy Fresco Acrylic in Weathered Copper (FF196) – so as to add some inexperienced for a superb outdated Christmas color palette.
You may even see above how the Copper paint appears barely totally different on white card to manilla – and likewise turns extra pink if combined with Chantilly.
I really like these randomly created prints – simply constructing layers utilizing the Gel plate.
I’ve paper pieced some parts, and added somewhat additional paint to others.
I made a decision so as to add my tags to playing cards – so used the little star stamp on the stamp set so as to add a little bit of curiosity to the cardboard base earlier than including the tags together with somewhat bow.
That is 3 Christmas playing cards made and a beautiful present bag able to fill! (With the opposite half of the enormous bag leftover…..).
