Scraps to Treasures Weekend Blog Hop 6/16-6/17

Welcome to a Weekend of

"Scraps to Treasures"

Blog Hop !

The hop begins at Robin's blog "Scrap and Chat"

on Saturday through Sunday

for 2 days of Creative Projects

Be sure to visit Robin to get in on the full scrapping lineup

of Creative Bloggers sharing PLUS Giveaways ! . .

THis is my 1st EVER scrapping project

plus entry in a hop featuring scrapped projects!

so I'm a little excited {to say the least!}

I've busily been putting final touches to my projects

that were to challenge our creativity using 'scraps'!

The project I intended took an entirely new direction

and I'm not at all disappointed ~

That's all part of the FuN of Creating!

I began with the unused, pre-owned charity shop gift bag

in this post's opening photo ~

I then layered co-ordinating cardstock to the front of the bag ~

the mauve is from Darien Gee's "Friendship Bread Scrap Packs"

{a fabulous book for any readers} !

and

the lime on white patterned is from Cely's Hawaii Paper Party

{Warm Thank you to each of you}!

a tiny white doily addition for my next step ~

became a background for ~

a couple embellishments

{again from Darien}

and we've a 'New Look' Gift Bag !

Huge & Heartfelt Thank You's

to Jessi for inviting me to this Scrapping Group !

and to my friend, Lil,

for willingly popping over at 10 pm to shoot these photos

virtually making this post possible!

{+ tomorrow's!!}

Bless you! You're nothing but the BEST !
