Altered gift bag

Hi all

Another quick tutorial on the altered gift bag from Day 19 of the Creative Craft World Christmas Countdown.

You will need:
Plain paper gift bag
Acrylic paint (I used teal)
Torn paper for layering
Lace
Stamped image (I used Paper Artsy Santa)
Distress inks
Tissue paper
Greeting Stamp (I used sentiment from Paper Artsy Santa stamp)
Text stamp
Versamark
Silver embossing powder
Snowflake stamp
White ink pad
Sequin waste
Ink pad/chalk for stamping through sequin waste

Method:
Step 1: Paint the gift bag using acrylic paint, let it dry!


Step 2: Stamp the main image onto cardstock and use distress inks to colour (I used Fired Brick and Peeled paint)
Step 3: Using vintage photo distress reinker and water soak the plain torn paper to create a distressed look, dry with a heat tool. Over stamp with text stamp. Layer main image onto the distressed paper.
Step 4: Edge image with lace.
Step 5: Place sequin waste randomly over bag and sponge with ink/chalk.
Step 6: Ink up the text stamp with Versamark and stamp randomly onto bag, heat emboss using silver embossing powder.
Step 7: Randomly stamp snowflake in white Brilliance ink.
Step 8: Adhere image to bag.
Step 9: Distress tissue strip with Vintage photo distress ink. Repeat stamp the greeting onto tissue paper and then tear edges, adhere across the bottom third of the bag.
