Purple Stars Paper Pack - Cu4cuCompleted by Gwyneth George

I took two of the backgrounds from this pack into one of my graphics packages. I also took in a mat from cup407631_99. I shrunk one to a much smaller size to be a mat behind the decorative edged mat.

Behind that I put a shaddow and created a plain edged mat as a narrow border around the background panel.

The other background I made to fill the whole page. Everything was layed out in such a way as to allow me to make this "bag" from the printed out design.

As I want this to give some jewellery as a gift I decided to print onto 250gsm Matte Crafty Bob cardstock to make it sturdy.

I used my Hougie Board to score the lines, cut along the bottom to allow it to be folded in, and stuck everything in place using a quick grab wet glue.

As I haven't put in the gift yet I haven't clipped the top together yet - I'm thinking of using a bulldog clip with co-ordinating ribbon.
