HEY! I know, I know....I've been gone. I've left ya hanging....
without explanation. But life blew up on me.
In the past 2 weeks, I've had 4 funerals, 1 graduation party that I took over and created all of the decorations for (my BFF's dad died the week she was having her daughter's graduation party!) and a bridal shower that I did some crafty things for - as seen above! Plus school functions and baseball practice.... This stay-at-home mom has been anything but! Today I'm home. Finally. One full day home. My agenda is still chaotic - laundry (ugh!), a garden to plant, some signs to make that I sold on my etsy shop, a class to prep for and a craft room that needs some serious attention. It's a disaster.
So, let's focus on some cheerful things, ok?
I created some favor bags for a recent bridal shower we had for my sister-in-law. I think they turned out super cute - I did 2 different styles - today I'm showing you my favorite one.
I stamped some black cardstock with a retired stamp (that I don't dare part with cuz I really love it!). I used the Gold Encore ink. I used the Dotted Scallop Border punch with some Gold Foil paper to anchor the bottom. Added half of a paper doily, and that was it for the base of my chevron favor bag.
The flower is a mix of flowers from the Fun Flower Die, and the Petite Pansy Punch. Stacked them and glued them, then added a black button that's tied up with some gold baker's twine (*swoon*)!
I made 10 of this style, then we filled them with yummy chocolates. Everyone loved them.
Would you like some of these bags? I'm putting them up on my Etsy Shop!
