"Spring is in Bloom" Gift Bag & Topper... Guest Designer for the B 'n W Challenges Blog...


I am so excited to be able to Guest Design for the B 'n W Challenges Blog!! :)

Jodi is hosting the challenge this week and she has chosen the theme... "Think Spring!!"

I made a "Spring" Gift Bag & Topper for my girls!! My Hubby bought lots & lots of gardening goodies so they can create their own garden in our new home!!


I chose the adorable "Rapunzel" Digi Image from Elisabeth Bell. You can find it here... http://www.elisabethbell.com/digital-collection/little-rapunzel


The only thing more fun than coloring an Elisabeth Bell image... is coloring a *BIG* Elisabeth Bell image!!!! If you look closely, you'll see a 6x6 acrylic posy flower that I pop-dotted the image onto. So, this adorable "Rapunzel" is a biggie!!!! :)

I used the "Cherish" Martha Stewart Punch and wove 4mm silk ribbon through it. We sell the silk ribbon for only .18 a foot... http://stores.sttg.com/-strse-Thread-Art-cln-.....Silk-Ribbon--dsh--4mm/Categories.bok


I used a "Daisy D's" Rub-on for the title and colored it in with Copic Markers. The rub-ons are also available in our store... http://stores.sttg.com/-strse-396/Daisy-D%27s--dsh--Rub-dsh-Ons/Detail.bok


Here's a pic of the Copic Markers that I used. I also used the #01 Lavender Spica Glitter Marker to write on the tag.

Other items used...

Martha Stewart Score Board
Bow-Easy... to make the bow!
Martha Stewart Punches... "Wild Flowers", "Eyelet Lace" and "Cherish"
