Love Paper Crafting: Kraft Gift Bag for Sweet Stampin'~

Hi Girls~

This weeks Challenge over at Sweet Stampin' is "Buttons & Bows with Polka Dots"...
A great Challenge I think. Our Sponsors this week are Crafty Ribbons.

I have made this lovely Gift Bag for our Challenge, I love making these. This is my "Kraft colour" Bag, but I also have these little bags in White and in Blue and Pink in a slightly larger size. They are perfect for a small pressy and this one measures 7 x 8 1/2.

Sorry about the poor quality of the photo, the light was not too good, it looks much more vibrant irl.

I have used an A4 sheet of Kanban double cardstock in Dots and checks (great card this as it's split in half so has a perfect natural area between the two patterns to add ribbon). I bought a pack of 6 bright colours, but wish I had bought more as I have used it all already!
I have also cut a Di-Namics doily from the leftover card. The Topper Image is from a Hobbyhouse sheet, isn't she cute, love the way she is gardening. Sentiment is LOTV. Flowers are a Di-Namics die, and the leaf is a Memory Box die. I have finished off with some Mei Flowers Ribbon.
