Each day you'll see a sneak peek of a fantastic Graphic 45 trick-or-treat bag designed by our design team members. Just click on the link to their blog and you'll be transported to a magical world of craft bliss! See the full unveil of the trick-or-treat bags on our featured design team member's blog each day and get inspired by their amazing projects!
This is actually my SECOND Trick or Treat Bag as I had so much fun creating the FIRST that I just had to do another!!
I LOVE adding dimension to my projects! Here you can see how've I've layered Graphic 45's Chipboard Tags with their patterned papers as well as some doilies, butterflies, wooden tags and twine!
Gotta love those metal staples!! I'm totally in love with Graphic 45's metal buttons, hinges, tags, door knobs and plates! For this bag, I simply painted the metal buttons with the same acrylic paint that I used to paint the Trick or Treat bag and finished by inking with a distress ink.
Of course, what would a Trick or Treat Bag be without a matching card?? I also created this Gate Card using Graphic 45's The Magic of Oz Collection.

Wow!! Love both the bag and the card! The embellisments are divine.
The wash that you put on the first Trick or Treat Bag really made a hugh impact on the overall look of the bag but there was just a small pinch of it that you could see (if you noticed). Just goes to show how attention to detail can really make a design FABULOUS which is all I really need to say about bag dos! Thank you.

Tara I love how you curved a title on your bag that almost looks like scrabble letter banner. I love all the dimensions and the gate card is sooo cute.. Love the whole oz theme... to this day..I have always wanted to have Gwendolyn the Good witches costume... this line of papers brings back such wonderful memories of eating home popped popcorn in our jammies watching wizard of oz.. after we trick or treated and mom checked the candy...
The bag has a nice retro, homey feel. Like the way the elements work together. Thanks for a clever design
Great project!!! So cute this bag, love too! And TFS!!! Hugs... Maggy :)
