These are made with the little paper bags in the shop. They come in packs of 25 and are great for candies, little mini cards, small crafting tools as gifts, and mini albums. There are a million uses for them and I decorate them in many different ways for the holidays.
These will be filled with mini candy canes.
Supplies used:
BoBunny Father Christmas (available in shop)
Black ink
Tim Holtz Rock Candy Clear Crackle
Red Pearl Pen by Viva Decor
White Picket Fence Distress Stain
Stickles
For the first little bag, I used the holly garland stamp. I colored the pine with a paintbrush using the ink from the inkpad. I used Evergreen Bough and Iced Spruce. I painted the greenery first with the Iced Spruce and topped it off with the darker Evergreen Bough on the larger leaves and anywhere I thought the color would look good. I added little drops of Pearl Pen and then hit that sucker with a heat gun.
The next tag was first stamped with the vintagey looking santa. Another option would be to stamp the image, then punch with a circle punch...and then foam dot it up on the bag. I painted in the santa hat and the white of his beard using the red (can't remember the name!) from the Limited Edition Distress Inkpad and the Picket Fence Stain. I got the tip of the stain bottle juicy and then just pulled the paintbrush over it to collect the paint. I then put a light coating of Rock Candy crackle over the top, and let dry. Then I colored it with weathered wood distress ink. Finally framing the santa with some gold stickles.
Fun.
