Berry Sweet Raspberries Card and Gift Bag


Happy Wednesday!

I'm back with a cute card and gift bag using Heartfelt Creations' Farmers Market Collection!

I made the card clean and simple using a kraft pre-made card for the base. I stamped the sentiment directly on the base, then added one of the large raspberry swirls colored with pencils and mineral spirits. I love these stamped images with the matching die! So easy to work with! Then I added a bow and pearl to embellish it.


For the gift bag, I used a kraft pre-made bag and added some of the beautiful designer paper to cover the front of it. I then embellished it with some lace, trim, bows and a tag cut from the designer papers. A quick and easy gift presentation with a card to match!


Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see all the wonderful creations by the designers this week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday #199 - Anything Goes/Family Friendly

Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings!
