Paperbag art


I love the ideas the DT have for challenges on Everybody Art and this week is no exception Paperbag so rather than make one which you could do I've decorated one of a few I had. I got them in a kit to make a paperbag mini book but they never got used. Gosh all I do is moan about my photography skills and this time its because the light was too bright, guess we're never happy.
I used some Kaiser papers and a Stamping Bella image you know I love these cup/mug girls. It was a great excuse to use some larger flowers and of course the Doo Hickey swirl had to been used.
I folded the top and made a catch using buttons so pleased this worked out but it was bit fiddly.

All in all I pleased how this turned out.
Do pop over to the challenge blog and check out the team and would love for you to join us.
