Love, love Saturdays' IC, Stef! And today's was no exception!!! It gave me a chance to show where all the naughty girls 2008 went. My inspiration came from one of theJack Spade bags. Please have a look!
I knew I wanted to create a bag, so I headed to the resources and found this perfect tote. I used Brazzill red cs for the box, the handles, and the scalloped bottom. The very cool harlequin paper is Bo Bunny #12 midnight double sided paper. I cut the points on both sides as I attached the handles (made from a HOTP tab template). The sentiment and the bellman loaded with packages were both stamped on GP white cs in VersaColor black and embossed with clear ep. I hand cut a red mat in the shape of the image. The LifeSaver is an unknown image I scored on the 'bay. Grapes my favorite flavor so it is inked with Nick Bantock's plum, embossed with clear and popped on a button. The trim is various pieces from my mess 'O ribbon.
On the INSIDE of the scalloped strip, I wrote all the names of schirmcats' naughty girl list. kinda of like handprints in a freshly poured sidewalk...we know WHO we ARE!!!
Thanks for looking and I love to read what is it about my art that has caught your EYE!!!

What caught my eye this morning was your paper. And of course, One4Joy - that catches my eye everytime. Your creations leave me shaking my head wondering how you came up w/ that. You are so very creative. This one is awesome.

Okay - the way I interpret this.. is that yeah.. I've gone out and purchased all of my own goodies for Christmas in the way of stamping stuff - and neglected others in favour of myself.. therefore both being very SELFISH and NAUGHTY indeed - but on the other hand, Santa needn't bother coming to me because I've done his job for him!!!
What caught my eye was the fellow carrying all of the packages - because that looks like me - though I am of course female - bringing home all of my stamping goodies.
Also - I felt a little shudder of fright upon thinking that my name was on the naughty list right in your bag!! OHHHHH Santa!!! I am so naughty!! shhh dont tell!
