MAWTT Challenge 154 - Happy Birthday! Lulu with Cake...

Hi... I'm here again with some more inspiration for our Challenge over at..

Moving Along With The Times

and just in case you haven't heard already ...we are celebrating our 3rd Birthday!!! Woo Hoo!! and to celebrate we are having a theme of....

'Happy Birthday'

So we want to see your creations for a 'Happy Birthday' - it doesn't have to be a card... could be a gift.. a tag.. bag...cake...etc. as long as we can see that it follows a 'Birthday' theme!! 

We have some fab prizes to celebrate ... and you have until 8pm BST Wednesday 4th July 2012. We really hope lots of you can join in the fun and make it a big celebration!! 

This time I have made a Gift Bag using a gorgeous digi image from The Crafty Pad.. called 'Lulu with Cake'

I found a Template online and digitally filled it with Design Paper from Bearly Mine Designs. It's the first time I've made a Gift Bag and it's not perfect so don't look too closely at those edges!!! I had a template but no instructions!!! So I did make a few mistakes... but managed to unstick it and re-do it. 

I've used ribbon that I've had in my stash Forever!!!!!!!!!!!! for handles... LOL the colours don't go with very much but they were perfect to go with this paper...

On the reverse I've printed and coloured Happy birthday..

I've coloured Lulu with Promarkers and Flexmarkers...

It was nice to do something different and I might have another go.. you learn by your mistakes... so hopefully my next one will be even better!! :-))

I chose some nice Christmas Stamps to do some more embossing!! :-)) The parcel came SO quickly from USA - it only took 6 days !!!! I am well impressed!!
