A friend was able to get this wonderful retired set for me.
Of course I had to make another little gift bag then decided to make a matching card.
the image is colored with prisma/gamsol, everything is sponged with adironcack mushroom for aging.
the top border of the bag is cuttlebug diamonds eb folder, add some pimas with large gold brads ( from good ole wallmart) I had to cut off the ends cause they are really long, add some ribbon and lots of glitter.
the card, has a hand cut photo corner that I traced from the original one that is from the cricut die cut machine sent to me from a friend. pretty much the same directions as for the bag.
the flower is made from cuttlebug mini dies and the center in made with glossy black cardstock dotted with acrylic white paint using the end of a paint brush, use any size you like to get different sizes of dots you want... this has the look of those expensive large dot brads... you can punch them any size you want.
thanks for taking a look!!

The roosters look ready to crow! and I was wondering where you found that oversize polka dotted brad. GENIUS! to use glossy and acylic paint dots!! ( I have that technology!)
