For the birds....

Long week-end

but I didn't get much accomplished-

rain = pain

and I had plenty of both unfortunately

and as my grandmother would say in exasperation,

"it was for the birds!"

I did create a gift bag and card

and while I can't show you the contents...

I will say---

both were created around the contents...or the theme of the item therein!

I had help....Lady Liberty was inspecting the final design...

 

smelling the flower...!

 

The base is just a plain old lunch bag..

the designer paper (dp) is old old old Stampin Up from my stash-

except for the tag--that was from a small atc sized stack

Lace, twine and other trims from my stash

Washi tape on the clothespin along with a burlap bow

This was going to be the front side of the tag (Happy Birthday)

But then I decided to make it the backside.

Or maybe not---can go either way!

Of course that blue sentiment oval is popped up

with fun foam (my new cheap pop-dot alternative!)

And that's about all creatively that got finished this weekend.

My mojo and focus has left the brain, body and building!

Did lots of blog hopping---just couldn't seem to settle in to create beyond this.

 

Time for work, vet visit (all paws crossed for good blood work results!),

and then helping a friend with a computer project

so long day ahead after a long week-end!

 

Until next time,

happy stamping and scrapping!

Blessings,
