' Everything i sell is sold to raise money for the ear trust. In fact had a call last night to say the t bag cards and things i made and a pamper cake i gave them to raffle raised 550 pounds . '

That's a wonderful amount to raise craftgranny - you must be very proud

OK you're all going to think I have a "thing" for black card :rotfl: but I've had a go at my Reindeer Poop bags. I've used black card (again ) as it's cheap and plentiful

This is going to sound stupid but do you think it looks too "posh" for a bag essentially of fake poop? :rotfl:

I have basically used a silver pen for the writing and a silver stamp pad and embossing powder for the label (which I've then heated up). Underneath the black label is a similar shaped cut out from silver card.

Sorry if this is plain as day but how do you fasten the black card around the bag?
Thank you...:)

Wow everyone has been so busy and made so many beautiful things - well done you talented bunch.

I'm ashamed to say I'm still waiting to get started - still scouring the shops for small holly shapes and Cadbury's miniatures without joy. However, I do have a stash of ES mints but they are going to diminish unless I find holly soon! Umm they taste good!

We've all been there .lol
Double sided tape on the back of the black card and then peel off the backing and stick to the bag.

Craftygranny I'm hoping to do some scrapbooking and have bought the book and some 'embellishments' but it's all the tools that go with it...and I just look and think 'But how do they do it?'
I think I'm just going to have to get stuck in...that is when I can tear myself away from all the creative threads on here at the moment.
Just beautiful crafts from extremely talented people.
