Artisan Wednesday Wow - 4/24/13

 

Welcome to the Wednesday Wow Artisan Design Team Blog Hop! 

I can't believe how quickly the weeks and months have flown by! For those of us on this Artisan 2012-2013 adventure, each month makes us apreciate the exciting opportunities we have had this year with Stampin' Up! 

Have you just come from Amy Bollman's blog? I can't wait to see what she has in store for us this week!

Well, I'm still excited about the Sunshine and Sprinkles Designer Series Paper that came in the box for April. 

Since I've already used it for three posts this month, I thought I'd use it one more time. It was a fun challenge: this time I decorated a shower gift bag. 

This gift bag is 8" x 10" so it's size is just right for some goodies for the bride-to-be. I stitched together the patterned papers and added the outside or excess strip form the Tasteful Trim Bigz Die scallop. Enlarge the photo to see the stitching details and the sentiment, " Thoughts of you...rain or shine."

The label is embossed with the Cloudy Day Folder. I LOVE those puffy clouds and the cute umbrellas in the Rain or Shine stamp set.

Thanks so much for taking a peek at my project. Supplies are listed below. 

I know you'll love what Erica Cerwin has in store for you, she's the next stop on your hop!

I love the bag and tag combo! You used the patterns in the paper beautifully and love the die cut letter additions to the greeting.
