I thought I'd try a little 3D project for a change of pace! I cut this bag from Plantin Schoolbook at fit to page on my Cricut Expression. It was easy to figure out how to put it together, but much harder in execution! I have pretty tiny hands, but it seemed like every time I stuck my hand inside to fix the placement of the little tabs, it would make other tabs pop up. I finally got it together, though!
To decorate the bag, I cut a purple circle from paper from the Paper Studio Basics pad in a circle, again using Plantin Schoolbook. I used the jack-o-lantern cut from Create a Critter 2, and the yellow splotch (which reminded me of pumpkin guts for some reason) is from Accent Essentials. I cut the green tag from Plantin Schoolbook and then made the hole bigger with a hole punch. I threaded some homemade bakers twine in green and purple through to attach it. For the picture, I tucked it behind the purple a little so you could see the whole thing in one picture.
I used two sentiments from Jaded Blossom's Simple Sayings- "Smile" and "For you." I haven't made it to the grocery store yet to get any candy to put it in, but I will soon!
I'm entering this into the following challenge:
