Christmas / Winter Gift Bag, Upcycling

For this Christmas gift bag I used:
Amazon packing paper, gesso, a word stamp and a Christmas napkin.
Martha Stewart "Lace Border" punch.
The tag is made out of a food package. I decorated it with snippets from the napkin.
Handles and bow: Coffee stained seam binding.

Here is a new upcycled gift tag from me.
I love upcycling / recycling, so I will post this one under the label "Do what you want" (Beccy's Holiday Challenge).
I used a cake box card board, coffee stained paper and an image found on Pinterest.

Vintage Tag

I am still working on my upcycling projects.
When the box has got only one colour and not a writing or an illustration which I don't want to keep on my tag, I glue the image directly to the tag. And this red fits so well with the girl's dress. So this tag is a simple one. The image is from Pinterest, I think. I love the joy in the children's faces.
And the box? A food package. 😊

Ornament, Christmas Gift Tag

Here comes another upcycled tag from me.
When I want to make something out of a little box, I nearly always end up with a tag.
For a card the pieces are too small.

The bauble and the holly on this tag are images from Beccy. I divided the holly image to get only one leaf on one of the sides.
Coffee stained paper. Gold glitter on the bauble. Red and brown Stabilo markers.

Thanksgiving

This project is not a "normal" card, but I hope it is ok to show it here.
I am about to make an Autumn/Thanksgiving journal with pockets, tags and journal cards.
I have used patterned papers from Gi Kerr, book pages and coffee stained papers.
The two first photos show a pocket with a little notebook inside.
Coffee stained papers for the pages.

On the third photo there is a pocket covering the whole page. 
The journal card has got coffee stained paper on the back.

I also used a selfmade maple leaf stencil and distress inks.
