This week we had a delightful image from "Prairie Fairy" to use in our project. Rather than a Valentine's Day card...this image just shouted ...Bag Topper Tag!!! Really I just wanted to try something new. It is always fun to surprise someone special with a little holiday treat. You might notice that my photography is a tad brighter and the images are cropped. I just downloaded a free photo editing program: Picasa. After a little experimenting, I was able to adjust the pictures. Much more pleasing to the eyes, don't you think?
The bag topper was embossed with a Cuttlebug folder, cut with a Spellbinder die, swiped with pink chalk ink, then attached to the filled candy bag with staples. I used DP and a Valentine paper heart to layer the image. After coloring with Copic Markers, I paper pieced the dress, added glitter to the wings and cut another head, colored and popped it up with pop dots to give it some dimension. A gelly roll pen added some shine to the arrowhead. Finally, I swiped the darling tag, added some puffy paint, colored the sentiment, added a crystal, then attached to the image. It was a fun project to complete.
