The new challenge this week at The Paper Variety is to add handmade flowers to you project.Handmade Flowers are fun to make and the options are really endless. You can roll spiral flowers, make flowers out of buttons, ribbon, fabric or cut them with dies. That seems to be the hardest part about making handmade flowers, just figuring out what type of flower to make.
Handmade Flower Gift Bag
For this challenge, I decided to make a gift bag from Cricut Tags, Bags, Boxes and More and I added a spiral flower cut from Flower Shoppe.
I added some silver liquid pearls along the rim of the flap and some crystal Stickles inside the flower. I’ve been totally into Jute Twine and Burlap lately so I added a Jute handle to the bag and tied it all together with a Jute bow.

Your gift bag is adorable! I totally agree with you about the Art Philosophy cartridge. It lives in my Cricut and I use it almost every time I craft now!
Thanks for sharing your art with us at Heart2Heart Challenges this week!
