The World Needs More Love Notes Gift Bag-Box

The world needs more love notes that’s for sure! And day fives project from Love Week last week hits the spot to share a little love note with a friend, spouse, or just someone in general Here’s a look at the project

When the world needs more love give them the gift of a More Love Gift Bag/Box using the More Love Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!

Watercolor Smooshing:

For this project, I took a piece of Shimmery White Cardstock and two of the Classic Stampin’ Spots (Daffodil Delight & Flirty Flamingo) to create the base for the background. I used a 6x8 Cello Bag (you can also use any recycled piece of plastic) pressed the two ink spots on it and spritzed it with some water to get the ink to move around and pressed it onto the Shimmery White Cardstock. I repeated this process until I had it completed covered.

Once I had the desired effect that I wanted I let the Cardstock dry completely. It’s better to let the Cardstock dry overnight or naturally than to heat set it If you heat set the Cardstock you take a chance on the paper buckling. So, create this piece the day before and let it dry.

Finishing Touches:

Once you’ve completed the drying process you are then going to stamp the More Love Stamp Set all over the background using the Basic Gray Stampin’ Spot. Then color the small flowers and leaves that are on the stamped image with Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends and Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends. Once it's all colored and scored it's time to put the bag/box together and put it in the bag to hold the treat and tie a bow to finish it off.
