Trick or Treat Magic of Oz Style!

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Today I have a fun project to share with you using The Magic of Oz collection from Graphic 45. Everyone on the design team was asked to create a Trick or Treat bag for the Summer 2011 CHA show. It was so neat to see everyone's takes on their project - all very different and unique.
Here is my take on the trick or treat bag.  I love the warm, rich colours in this collection.  Lots of fussy cutting on this project with many popped out elements.
I am simply in love and addicted to all the Metal Staples from Graphic 45.  I think I use their hinges on pretty much every project I create!
I also used some of Graphic 45's newly released chipboard tags to add a little dimension.  For the metal button, I simply painted the inside a rusty colour to match the papers.  The beautiful ribbon is from May Arts.

Thank you so much for your visit today!!

Who would have believed this was once a humble paper bag - it is now a work of art. Beautifully done, love the colours you went with from the Oz papers.... Hugs x
