Giftbag

For Anonyme Timeglass' 3. challenge I made a giftbag. This challenge is "Hearts and Roses".
I used the lovely papers from Piondesign - lovely aren't they...
The edges are distressed, I punched hearts and butterflies and used together with roses and pearls for decorations on the bag.
-Of course the hearts and the roses are sprayed over with glimmermist :)
The hearts I used at the ribbonends have got a heavy layer of GlossyAccents on.
I made a big heart to use as closing of the bag, and decorated it the same way.
I don't have a stamp with the poem I wanted to use on the bag, so I had to write by hand. It took some practices before I dared write it onto the cutout. First I wrote very, very soft with a pencil, then I wrote over with a light grey felttip-pen - rather shaky when I finished writing :s

Here's the back of the giftbag, I think the wonderful DP (with a border) was enough decorating - some papers are just too beautiful to cover...

close-up of the poem, in my best hanwriting...
