Bugaboo - Friday Freebie

Each week Bugaboo features an image in the shop  and you can get it FREE.   This week's digital image is Hang in There - Dog I needed a gift bag and enclosure card for an upcoming baby shower at work. This week's image is perfect!   This is one of the things that I love about using digital images --- Sizing! I enlarged the image for the bag to 6 inches and about 2.5 inches for the gift card.   Of course, the image on the gift bag was  paper pieced and the entire panel has a machine stitched border.   Be sure to stop by the Bugaboo Blog for more design team inspiration! I'm also sharing my project with the following: Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge:  Leap into the Unknown (Baby shower gift bag and card) Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Touchy Feely   (texture added with machine stitching and paper piecing) TTCRD:  Anything Goes 

Sassy Cheryl's Show Me #49

Another week of sharing with the Sassy ladies over on Sassy Cheryl's blog. Each week we get to check out what others are doing AND get entered for a FREE Sassy Cheryl digital image. This week I tried something new. Sandy Redburn, owner of Crafty Secrets , challenged us to make a gift bag from an envelope. It's a great way to recycle and create a unique size of bag to fit your individual needs. Here's the short video from incrediblethings.com showing how to make these quick and easy bags. I've layered lace, a felt die cut tag, and images from the Crafty Secrets Girlfriend vintage scrap sheet onto my bag. I added a ribbon trim and some pins to finish off! Easy Peasy!! Hope you can be creative this week! Maybe you'll get a chance to recycle and envelope and make your own gift bag.
