Hello everyone and welcome, lovely to have you visit!
A quick and easy project from me today, using some of the wonderful Graphics 45 "French Country" collection papers. Every time G45 bring out a new collection I think - this is my favourite - and then they bring out another one which I like even better.
Anyway, this started as one of those plain brown paper baggies. I then added some of the papers and elements and some lace. Here is a close up of the front:
The sunflowers were fussy cut from one of the papers.
Here is the other side:
There is very little stamping on this background, other than the tag and the backing to the rooster image.
Both were created with the help of a Memory Box die and matching stamp.
Well, that's it. This is one of these projects that can come in very handy when you need a quick present to take along, maybe with some home made goodies inside. It came together pretty quickly, I'll probably make some more of these soon.
Thank you for visiting and hopefully see you soon again...

Gorgeous, gorgeous use of these fab papers, Astrid... I love the vintage distressed look on the bag itself too.

Hi Astrid-
I have as you know been away, too-so commenting late!
Your wonderful gift bag ,with,- the most
sweet and lovely images from Graphics 45 with the hens and roosters- and the great black/beige papers used as backgrounds are lovely- also the other side with the red frame is so beautiful--a bag for decorating a wall, rather that carrying some goods inside :-)
So wonderful for storage of lovely laces!
