Good day and welcome - I know I have been absent from the blog lately - but my excuse is a wonderful one! My son was married last weekend in our back yard - so I have been concentrating all of my efforts towards that wonderful event!! I will be posting pictures as I get them - so stay tuned!
On to the important business of the day - I am especially excited to be participating in a special Blog Waltz today!
Pouch Mart is a web store that sells all shapes, colours and sizes of bags - and the folks over at Pouch Mart have generously sent us some of their fabulous bags to work with! Aren't we lucky!!
They are also offering a $25 Pouch Mart gift certificate for one lucky commenter!! And Waltzingmouse Stamps are also offering a free stamp set to one commenter - it's all wonderful!! See all of the exciting prize details at the end of my post!
I received a couple of these cute little
Eco-Friendly Mini Totes from
Pouch Mart and knew immediately that they were the perfect card size! They are 5" x 5 1/2" and are eco-friendly - that is they are non-harmful to the environment since you certainly wouldn't throw out this sweet bag - it is a re-user - and look at all the pretty colours!
I decided to glamour up my turquoise tote with some lace trim and fringed felt. I used my trusty glue gun - so easy!! (although my fingers now have no fingerprints haha) It is exactly the right size for my card so I am using this bag instead of an envelope when I go to that special birthday party!
As I said earlier in my post, Pouch Mart is offering a $25 Gift Certificate to one lucky commenter and Waltzingmouse Stamps is providing a free stamp set to one commenter!
