Aloha Friday Challenge #4 - Mid Inspiration!

Hello peeps~
Just popping in with some mid-challenge inspiration fir Kitty Bee Challenge!   We are in our mid-way for challenge #4 "Summer" and you still have time to join in the fun.   I decided to do a origami bag love how simple it is with one sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock.  Here is my project, don't forget to hop back over and check out what the rest of the ladies from the DT have put together for your inspiration. 

Recipe used:

papers - Doodlebug

ribbon - Stampin' Up, brads, twine, glossy accents

Spectrum Noir Markers

tag/sentiment - My Creative Time

Another bag!

Here is another quick / easy bag  that I also did yesterday.  This digi  ( Past your bedtime) is a freebie now and you can get her on Pixie Dust Studio Facebook, join the fan club and share your project too.  This digi will also be released later part of this month in the shop.  If you are not on Facebook I suggest you give it a try, lots of fun things and crafty friends to share and chat with...
So on to my bag, the papers are from the paper pad Hideaway, memory box die, button, sentiment from Kaiser craft, Spectrum Noir and copic markers and flower brads.... With coloring you can do this bag within 45 minutes and at a normal pace.  Like I mentioned on the bag their is no cutting involved it's scoring your paper correctly and folding the creases properly.

Don't be surprised if you see more of these bags, LOL!
Thanks for taking a peek~

A Back to School Project for a Teacher!

I was going to wait until tomorrow to post this but I was excited to share it with you all, this cute and easy origami style handbag can be used for any occasion or a just because gift bag.  It is simple and easy to do, and I will be making more of them on my postings to share.   They are just the perfect size and can hold a lot in this 12 x 12 cardstock... Their is absolutely no cutting involved, on one side you just score 3" x 3" turn it the other way and score it at 5" x 5", I took a 6" x 6" designer's paper and scored it 5" so that it would flap over, punched out my holes with my Crop-A-Dile, added brads for the handle.  For the handle I cut two strips of 1/2" x 12" cardstock.  I also had a lot of my already made apples that I did on a previous postings using my Create a Critter cartridge.   I try to keep a stash of each project using my Cricut so that I have them handy when I need them.  And last I used my Spell binder Flora Doily Motifs.  Now was this simple or not....  This handbag is so versatile then you can embellish it  how ever you want it.  

I hope this project inspired you, I would like for you to try it out you will be amazed how quick and simple it easy... Can't wait to see your creation on this project!
Thanks for popping in~
