Fussy-cutting a paper bag for my layout


 


Even though I usually bring my own reusable bags when I go shopping, sometimes I do have to take a paperbag from the retailer if the item I buy doesn't fit into my reusable bag. If it's a really sturdy paper bag, I would decorate it as a gift bag. 


This one, from a Japanese retailer usually tears by the time I get it home. But the floral wreath design is really pretty....


So I fussy-cut the floral wreath and used it on my layout. :)


Perfect for a layout with 3 gals...just me and my cousins catching up last Christmas. 

Playing along with Stick It Down.

What a great use for the Takashimaya bag. I have also shopped a that store and always liked the floral wreath design on their bags. You always make me take a second look at what might sometimes be tossed in the trash. Thanks for inspiring upcycling.
