Hello crafty friends!
I'm back with another card for Seize the Birthday #328! This time it is an anything goes card, no vellum or acetate! I used the Hero Arts Tote Bag dies for this one and set it up so you could make it a gift card holder.
After I cut the pieces for the tote bag I added a sentiment from the Spellbinders Shopping Bags set. It's an older set I've had for a few years. I stamped the sentiment with Catherine Pooler's In The Park ink!
My background uses papers from Lawn Fawn's Speffier Speckles 6 x 6 paper pad. My tote bag was added with foam dots so that I could add a gift card into it. So that I could line it up properly I held the gift card where I wanted to place it and then turned it over to get the foam dots in the right place. I used an old gift card as my placeholder. This is actually one I use when I'm reinking my ink pads to spread the ink over the pad.
Once I had it lined up and the foam dots in to the right place and attached it to the card front.
The little details on for the tote bag make for such a realistic look--the stitching across the top of the bag, the little tag and of course the stitched lines for the handles and the front pocket.
A really quick and easy card too make and I love that the options are endless.
I am submitting this to Seize the Birthday #328 Anything Goes!
Thanks so much for stopping into today!

WHat a darling way to present a gift card, Tracey. Love it.
You're right about the details on the die cut, Tracey. It makes a lovely tote bag and the fact that you can add a gift card is an extra reason to make this card.
Tote-ally adorable, Tracey!
