Boxes and Bags at Try it on Tuesday
Hi All. Nice of you to drop by today thank you.
It's time again for another challenge at Try it on Tuesday and I am sure this one will be amazing as there are so many things you will be able to think of for the 'Bags and Boxes' theme. You can find inspiration from all the team if you can't think of something, so do pop along to TIOT and see what they have made.
I made quite a few as it was quite easy once I got the hang of it. The pearl emblies were the Royal-Schmuck ones that Valerie sent to me, they are so beautiful
I started off with an empty Jaffa Cakes box for this bag
It was just covered in brown paper.
The flower is one made from the TH Tattered Flower die and the leaves I have had for a while but I think they may be TH as well so do let me know whose they are if you know please.
There are many tutorials online for changing boxes into bags and some wonderful ideas. The one that guided me was here though I did do my own version of it at times.
This is another one I made
This is another one I made
thought I would make biscuits to put in this one
the box I used-all healthy stuff with no calories at all :)
Hope you will join in with us
Love Chrissie xx

Fabulous idea, love recycling! I have bookmarked the tutorial for later. The first one is my favourite as it has the magic Kraft colour and distressed flower (beautifully done by the way) as well as the lovely gems.
ReplyDeleteI love how you've recycled to make such beautiul bags.
ReplyDeleteThese bags are fabulous, great re-cycling and beautifully embellished xx
ReplyDeleteBrilliant recycling - who could ever guess what humble beginnings lie beneath the beautiful surfaces! I just love that first one, so elegant but with a hint of rustic simplicity from the krafty background.
