Friend-ship Decorated Paper Bag - LD Freebie Papers

Just thought I would share with you, a project using LD FREEBIE papers (offer for a limited period).  Never ignore FREEBIES, as they always come in handy for those quick projects. So here goes, my decorated paper back with a Sailing theme! 

I imported the papers into my Pazzles InVue software and cropped the image to give me the borders for my bag.  Once printed out using my software I used a paper trimmer to cut the papers.

The ship was taken from the LD Friend-ship (GS).  I printed it out using a circle tag for speed, and layered it on a circle scallop using orange cardstock, then layered it onto some blue cardstock.

I Print and Cut the Friendship sentiment from the same Graphic Set used above. Using my 

Pazzles Inspiration Vue which uses an optical eye, makes it so easy to cut out toppers 

for my projects......I love it!

"Dear Santa" decorated paper bag

A few days ago I posted my first decorated brown paper bag and was so surprised at how incredibly easy it was to create, so I have made another one!  

I have cut up a panel from the Graphic 45 - Twas the Night Before Christmas, paper collection and inked around the edges using a red ink pad.  I adhered my SRM Stickers "Dear Santa" to the bottom of the brown bag.  

I punched out some snowflakes out of coordinated papers from the collection and added a self adhesive pearl to the centre.

Finally, I added a red stitched ribbon and button, then tied it together using some Kraft twine.

Yes, it's that simple.

Decorated Paper Bag - Pazzles March Challenge

Here, is a my Pazzles DT project, which I have entered into this month's challenge.  We were given a photograph and had to use an element(s) from the photograph that inspired us.  I have picked out the colours brown, green and pink from the photo.  I was particularly inspired by the repeating patterns in the photo so I decided to make my own printable paper for my bag using a repeating chevron design.

March Pazzles Challenge - Photo Inspiration.

I used a Cheveron Lace cutting file from the Pazzles Craft Room and printed it onto a paper bag cutting file.  

Effectively, I printed the design onto white paper using my printer and then cut out the bag using my scissors and paper trimmer.

Then, I Print & Cut the Assorted Owls (by Miss Kate Cuttables) which I found in the Pazzles Craft Room Library.  When you open the owl cutting file you will need to take time to layer all the elements but it's quite easy.  I then made an outline followed by Print & Cut.

I folded a pink doily that I had in my paper stash and added the other embellishments.

I love being able to use cutting files with Print & Cut but can't wait to get the NEW Inspiration Vue™ which will make this process so easy.
