Polar Gift Bag

We've a new Anything Goes Challenge starting at The Ribbon Girl today, here are the lovely prizes you can win from them this time!

Prize: £10 voucher from Polkadoodles

 

2nd prize is a selection of pink/lilac flowers/ribbons/lace from The Ribbon Girl

Here's my list of gorgeous Ribbon Girl Goodies I used for this bag.

16mm 'Allison' Lace, 75mm 'Abigail' Lace, 55mm 'Emma' Lace, Gold / Ivory Chevron Ribbon, 6mm Ivory Pearl Trim, Poinsettia Gold Shimmer, 40mm White Daisy, Rose Leaf White, Beaded Stamen Mocha, Beaded Stamen White

I've used some other items which I'll add in below as well

In addition to the chevron ribbon and pearl string from The Ribbon Girl you can see a heart paper doily layered in with my design papers.  The Christmas sentiment is from Make It Crafty.  I've left it natural to blend in with the theme of the card.

This section shows a close up of the flower arrangement on the bag and some of the lace.  Lace is merged into the layers of design papers as well as being a feature on the top layer.  I've also used some pearl gems.

This beautiful little polar bear image is a topper from Marianne Design I won as part of a prize at Kerst / Christmas on Facebook the link is here.

This the final picture showing an angled shot of the gift bag, it's going to be part of a special gift for a very special person :)

Thanks for popping by for a look today.  Hope you check out The Ribbon Girl blog and Facebook group where we share more inspiration.

We're onto H already at the ABC Challenge.  We'd like to see your cards loaded up with die and embellishments.

Our sponsor this time is Marianne Design

This little cutie is a clear stamp called Lazy Daisy.  She's been coloured with ProMarkers and cut out with a Spellbinders die .  I've then used another die to cut the pink border behind her to frame the image.

The design paper are from First Edition, Studio Light, Lili of the Valley and Joycraft.

The banner was created using a La La Land Die and then sentiment coloured with ProMarker is a Lili of the Valley one.

I've finished the card off with some pearl gems and a scattering of paper flowers.

Hope to see you at the challenge

This fun image is from Marianne Design - Don & Daisy Winter DDS3326 in case you're looking for it.

I've coloured mine with ProMarkers then fussy cut him out.  There are some sticky dots at the top behind the image to raise him slightly to add some dimension to the card.

I ended up creating a scene for him with some mountains in the background.  These I very roughly sketched out then added a bit of grey, white gel pen and glitter to.

This is the finished card.  You can see the whole of the backdrop now.  The glitter I've used is a DecoArt loose one (and I got covered in it LOL!!)

The sign stack you can see to the right of the image is fussy cut from a piece of Christmas design paper from Craftwork Cards.  I've also used some sticky dot on the top half of this to give some dimension.

A perfect card for your budding little skiers :D
