Extra Tall Purse Bag

I've been a super slothful design team member. Sorry Jan!!! Actually, I've been creating things with Jan's awesome files, but just haven't been very good at posting pictures. Here's a cute gift bag a created for a friend's birthday gift.

I used Jan's "Extra Tall Purse Bag" file http://www.paperthreads.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=5088 and then I added her "Technique Combo Flowers 4" http://www.paperthreads.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=5380 to the front of the bag and cut it out. I cut the smaller petals out of two sided adhesive film (available from QuicKutz) and covered it with glitter. I filled the inside of the bag with pink tissue paper to conceal the gift and add color to flower's large petals. Here's a close up of the flower.

My friend loved it and was so quick and easy to make. I think one of the best things about owning a digital cutter is being able to make a hand made item so quickly and easily. BTW, Jan's files work with the Klic-n-Kut, the Wishblade, the CraftRobo, the Silhouette, and now even the Cricut! They are awesome--check them out!
