Gifting with Angi Barrs! :)




My guest today is my sweet friend Angi Barrs of Angi & Cokie Designs. Angi has a sweet and simple design style that speaks to those who enjoy loads of colour and cuteness in their projects! I particularly love how she alters gift bags and adds sweet touches to personalize them and makes them super special for the recipients! Angi is hosting a gifting challenge and sponsoring a great RAK! :)

Let's have a look at her kawaii gallery!




**********************************************


Hello fellow crafters, I'm Angi Barrs (also known as the Cokie Pop lady). I am so honored to guest design at Do More With Less.

I live in Terrific Texas! I'm a mom of 2 wonderful daughters and work full-time as a school teacher. I also love to bake and eat way too many sweets (cheesecake is my fave). I also love fur babies. I'm on the hunt for a new puppy this summer. :)

I love using recycled & upcycled materials in my designs. I always make my own gift bags and boxes. Who needs store bought gifting when you can make your own? I like to use a a lot of different textures and colors when dressing up my gifting containers. You will find that using Kraft & paper bags is the easiest and most practical to design with. I hope you enjoy my fun twist on gifting. 


 *******************************************************************************

Now, who wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of these goodies, right? Ready to play along? Link your newly created Gifting Creations via InLinkz (located at the end of the post) by Friday July 15 for your chance to win an awesome prize pack from Creative Charms and Really Reasonable Ribbon! :)

As always, please leave a little love for my guest Angi!
