Make Stuff Monday - an upcycled paper bag



Hello friends! Today's Make Stuff Monday is an upcycled paper bag. :)


I started with this lovely turquoise paper bag (mum's friend gave her some CNY goodies in this bag).


I really wanted to incorporate the Queen of Spades playing card so I pulled out embellishments that matched the colours on the card...and just build up from there.



The black bow ribbon came from a Jo Malone box packaging (last week's first decorated box of 2020) so I cut it to fit my bag. To tone down the bold patterned paper background, I added a piece of paper doily which served as a perfect mat for my embellishment cluster. :)


I switched up the paper bag handles with the handles from another paper bag to match the reds on the decorated paper bag.

What do you think?
