MAWTT Challenge 102 - Anything But A Card

It's Thursday and that means the start of a new challenge at Moving Along With The Times

This week we have a brilliant theme of Anything But A Card

I love these challenges as i love to make boxes, bags & altered things!

This week we are sponsored by Every Crafts A Pound. If you attend lots of the craft shows in the UK, you will probably know them, like me

Here is my take on the challenge...

It's a Marci Gift Bag! Isn't she just soooo cute! This is Winter Marci, altho i think she can be for any occasion. I will have to hunt out the template and add it on here later. I made a little think open top box for the middle bit and then i used my Nestabilities to create the front. I then made a little handle to match with patterned papers. I colour Winter Marci with Copics. I also added WOJ Pearls & Cherry Blossoms. It was quite simple and easy to make really!
