Now many of you will know that I dread making cards for boys/men. I like my flowers and ribbons and girlie stuff too much. Thank goodness, then, for this Mo Manning image. Not too butch/manly but masculine nonetheless!
I also decided that rather than make a card, I'd make a gift bag for a change. I'd bought some Papermania bags from the Glitterpot a little while ago and thought they would be a good way to use up the leftovers in some of my 12"x12" paper pads. The glitter paper is from a Christmas MME pad and the newspaper printed DP is a more recent a very strokeable purchase, also MME. The ribbons are from my stash.
Finally, I added a miniature image to a gift tag to go with the bag.
As ever, the Sweeties have some gorgeous creations to inspire you, so do hop over to Sweet Stampin' and check them out!
Have a lovely weekend,
Tracey xx

I love this bag Tracey. It's beautifully done & I really ♥ those papers! How's the weather up there? Gorgeously sunny here, got the washing on the line & thinking about popping out for a spot of sunbathing lol!
Enjoy your weekend hon xx
Hi Tracey
This is gorgeous .. .. I love it very, very much!!!
Your image is coloured beautifully and I love your paper choices too. The newsprint looks super scrummy.
I bought this image a while ago and haven't put it to good use yet .. .. might nearly be time to make amends!!!
Thanks for the inspiration.
Love Jules xx

Hi Tracey, this is just such a great bag! The image is brilliant and I love the way you've put everything together. Makes me think I should branch out and make something other than cards (and the very occasional LO) sometimes! Sarah
