And here are my projects. First up is a paper bag filled with love.

Vintagepåse 1

I started with painting the brown paper bag, the kraft tag, clothes peg and the newspaper piece with a thin layer of gesso and then stamped away.

The set I’m working with is the Mini Birds Clear Stamps Set and the bird is cut out with the  coordinated Mini Birds Die. It’s a perfect fit!

I’m entering this in Panduro Hobby’s Shabby Chick challenge, trying to go a bit Shabby! I also used this wonderful photo as a bit inspiration!

My second card is a Mothers day card using the same set.

What stunning projects, Tesa! I am so completely in love with your gift bag project! What a fabulous shabby-chic creation it is. So wish I had some gesso. Totally love how it looks. And what a lovely card, too. The gold embossing is so rich and elegant. Love the pop of color of the hummingbird, too.
