FTTC119–Bags & Boxes

 

SONY DSC

Hello everyone~

It’s time for Flourishes Timeless  Tuesday Challenge (FTTC199)!! Dee is hosting a fun challenge this week! The challenge is to *decorate a bag/box*. You can make your own bag/box and decorate it or you can the store-bought one. You can visit Flourishes blog for more detail about how to play. Can’t wait to see your card/project!

 

CR84FN29 Graphic

I decided to create a gift bag from paper and decorate it with Lilac stamps set. Your can find how to make the box from HERE at SCS. The image was stamped on the kraft mat and colored with Prismacolor colored pencils. I embellished with white pearls and tied the bag with satin finish cotton ribbon. I have a small bottle of lotion and votive candle with lilac scent and I can put them in the bag when I give them to my friend :)

The color combo was inspired from CR84FN Color Challenge 29 (CR84FN29).
