I received the Live in Color Collection. This is a gorgeous collection of whimsical images and beautiful colors and knew they'd be perfect for a gift ensemble.
The gift bag was originally pink and was somewhat faded by the sun. Using the new ColorBox Chalk Inks in Harvest and Splash, I rubbed the ink pads across the gift bag, mixing the colors. The colors of the inks coordinated really well with these papers.
I cut the Beautiful Daydreams paper to fit the gift bag, matting it with gray cardstock. Then I fussy cut a cloud and the kite, adding them to the gift bag with foam adhesives for dimension.
Not wanting to waste any papers I had left, I created a coordinating birthday card with the remaining paper and stamped "Happy Birthday" on a die cut oval I had left over from my previous birdhouse project. I then matted it on several other dies before adding it to the card.
Thank you to Susan K. Weckesser, Inc. for giving me the opportunity to be a guest designer this month. And thank you for stopping by today.

Steph this is so pretty! How wonderful to re-use a bag that could be altered. Love this fun paper and the colors are great.
