There is a great challenge going on over at the Our Craft Lounge blog. This week's challenge is a Clean & Simple challenge with a twist. You must use something clear on your project, too.
So clean and simple is a pretty easy challenge for me but the use something clear?......I was stumped. When I was looking around my craft room for something clear to use....I spied my big package of acetate and decided to make a gift bag with an acetate window. Here is my project for this week's challenge.
I used the Our Craft Lounge set called Pins and Needles for this bag. I need to give a small present to a friend of mine for helping my oldest daughter.....so I thought filling this little bag with some homemade cookies would be great, don't you? I cut a circle from the front of the bag using a circle nestabilities. Then I used a piece of acetate for my window. I cut a couple of frames to put around the window. Using some white pigment ink, I stamped the stitches directly onto the bag. Then I stamp the sentiment, pin cushion and sewing machine and mounted those onto die cuts.
While my present won't be a sewing project, I think my friend will appreciate it! Hope you have a great weekend. Check back tomorrow for more OCL projects using Pins & Needles!
So cute Debbie!
