Floral Frenzy { 1 }

For todays final project I have a template for you all to try. I was inspired by my very creative daughter for this project. She helped me a great deal creating this cute little Nestie bag, as we like to call it.

I recently purchased a pack of patterned paper by Martha Stewart and decided to use a sheet of it for this project. We first created two large scalloped squares using my Nestabilities. We then created the main part of the bag using the template below.

Download Tiny_Nestie_Tote_Bag_Template.pdf

After downloading and creating the template attach the scalloped squares to the front and back of the bag. For the handle of the bag I cut a strip of the same patterned paper to 1.25" X 12".  I attached that to the sides of the bag using white brads.

We added our stamped Cuttlebug flowers to the front of the bag and added the smaller Cuttlebug flowers to the front of tiny little nail polish bottles. Kacey is at that age where she loves her nails painted and so do a lot of her friends. This would make such a cute gift for her to give a friend for her birthday. Add a nail file, polish remover and a few cotton balls and this would complete it perfectly.

I used my Cuttlebug Tiny Tag set to stamp my sentiment. I punched a .25" hole in the upper left hand corner of my bag and attached my tag with ribbon.

I have one more post for you all before tonights big release! Til then....
