What great looking bags on today's Inspiration Challenge! I'm also combining this w/ Wed's Sketch Challenge. This is the [Plaid Moyna Bag I chose. I love the black & white w/ the red plaid.
All images are DRS Designs and except for the plaid, they are new for the Holidays! I just love these filigree snowflakes.
The snowflakes were stamped w/ black ink onto white c/s. I did 3 of the large one, cut out one whole one and only center portions of the other two. The two centers were layered on top of the whole image.
The other two snowflakes were stamped on top of a white panel and I cut around the bottoms of both. The plaid was made by stamping the two stripe images in a plaid pattern. The top of the plaid bg was inserted under the bottoms of the two snowflakes. Another piece of the plaid was attached to white c/s w/ a punched lower edge. I added stickles and rhinestones to the snowflakes. Card size is 5.5 x 4.25 (A2).
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them
