♥MADDIE♥ gift bag

i think pretty much everybody has sussed by now that i looooooove fancy gift-wrapping generally, and that i make A LOT of fancy gift bags. to me they're yet another great way to use our paper-crafting supplies, (especially our pixie dust paperie kits--this one was made with the gorgeous stuff in the SUMMER OF LOVE kit!) and i love that i can make something just as cool... and infinitely more PERSONAL... than the expensive store-bought ones.

here's my latest gift bag effort, it's for niece madeline, as you'll've guessed from the photo. :)


sometimes people wonder at the thought of making such a fancy bag, seeing as it'll only be used once. well, for one thing, i really do *LOVE* making them; but also, i have a little secret i am happy to reveal to my fellow crafty types... it's on the pixie blog today... check it out if you have a minute! :) :) :)

    I can't do gift bags. I'll add those to the "missing gene pool" along with collage and coloring.

    I love your punched border. I may or may not even have those MS punches. I know, now you're going to tell me that is not punched, but I may not believe you.
