For the 3D project made with the You're Amazing set, I decorated a gift bag on which I slid a topper die-cut with the new Oval Accent Bigz Clear die. I wanted a masculine feel to it so I paired the new Gumball Green and Midnight Muse with Marina Mist.
The stamped the tickets repeatedly on the Midnight Muse cardstock and embossed the images with clear powder. Then, I added a strip of Marina mist cardstock on which I stamped the Hapy Birthday sentiment in Midnight Muse (adorned with two mini silver brads) and added faux stitching with a white gel pen over and under the strip. I added two circles folded in half on each end and matching buttons from the Regals Designer Buttons pack.
TIP: To "thread" the buttons, I simply added a white line using the white gel pen on the button!
The topper was die-cut out of Gumball Green polka dot paper that comes from the Be of Good Cheer paper pack. I used the Oval Accent Bigz Clear die, folded the piece in half and punched using the Word Window punch along the middle to create an opening, then I slid the topped over the handles. To decorate the topper part, I die-cut a piece of Marina Mist cardstock using the Labels Collection Framelits and stamped "little brother" from the Family Reunion stamp set. I added matching brads at the bottom, and added a handcut hot air balloon decorated with a matching navy button. I finished the project up by tying two pieces of ribbon (Gumball Green satin and Not Quite Navy taffeta) around the handle.
