Loved the cards that Susie Australia made with this image. I remember her doing one where the ballerina had a dimensional snowflake skirt.
I stamped the girl and colored her with Copics. Cut her out and glued her to the bag. Using a thin grocery bag, I applied several colors of acrylic paint randomly, sprayed with a gold mist and when dry die cut various leaf shapes. Used a TH stamp to add some texture to the bg and then added "smears" of gold paint(looks yellow in the photo). The skirt was made by gluing down layers of the die cut leaves. Thanks, Susie, for the inspiration. Happy Australia Day!
This will be for a fashionista friend's birthday.

Gosh, Sallie - those leaves are beautiful, a real woodland couture outfit. The gold spray over the acrylic makes for amazingly beautiful leaves. The bag is a gift itself already!

I did not guess this was yours, Sallie. So different from your usual work, but still as amazing as always. How clever to make a gift bag! This is sure to be a big hit!
