Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I'm joining a group of talented demonstrators from the Stamping with Friends Blog Hop Facebook group. Our theme today is "Something Other than a Card"! My team held a Holiday Extravaganza a couple of weeks ago and my project was a Santa Bag, so that's what I'm sharing with you today.
This bag is very simple. Purchase some faux fur from a craft store along with red bags. Cut a piece to go down the middle and adhere to the bag. Cut a piece of Basic Black the width of your bag and, according to how large your bag is, about 2 1/2" wide. My piece is 8 1/4" x 2 1/2".
Next, add the gold buckle. My piece is 3 1/2" x 3". On top of that add a 1 3/4" x 2" piece of Basic Black to complete the buckle.
This picture of my team member, Judy Weston, holding the bag gives you an idea of the size.
To make this tag, you need a Basic White scalloped circle, a smaller Petal Pink circle, a Poppy Parade triangle, and a large tag to adhere the head to. The ball on the hat is a 1/2" circle punch, a small circle of Petal Pink is the nose, and the eyes are small Basic Black circles. You could use small goggle eyes instead. The rim on the hat is white glimmer paper punched with a scalloped edge punch. I folded the Basic White scalloped circle in half and stamped To and From on the inside.
The participants who attended our event loved this bag, and I hope you do, too. Please take a minute and check out the awesome projects of the other demonstrators. Thank you for my visiting blog. Beginning Monday I will introduce my 5 Days of Christmas Cards. You don't want to miss it!
