It is time for another challenge at The Kraft Journal. This week's challenge is to create something for the kiddies.. I saw an owl bag on Pinterest and just had to give it a try..
I created this owl treat bag for my son's birthday party. I used Tracy's tutorial on how to make a treat bag out of a A2 Lunch Bag Kraft Standard envelope. I then used some punches and the Lunch Bag Kraft Cardstock paper to cut out all my shapes. I added some Orange Bakers Twine for a little embellishment. I also used some of The Kraft Outlet's Medium Cello bags to hold the treats. I then added some orange buttons for a splash of color. My son loved this project. Head on over to The Kraft Journal Blog and join in on the challenge. You can find it HERE.
I just got back from a trip to the beach. This is one of the things I LOVE about North Carolina. One morning I got up early and the only thing on the beach was me and this seagull..
This was the view from our deck. It was so pretty.
I got up and watched the sun rise over the horizon. It was gorgeous and inspirational.
This was right before it peeked above the clouds.
Needless to say I was not ready to come back..:)
Adorable little owl bag Dawn....ABSOLUTELY adorable. Love the little orange buttons scattered on the bottom of his feathers.
ReplyDeleteYour a photographer too...your pictures are really nice! Love the one you took from your deck. That is the kind of place I would love to live!
Adorable owl gift bag, Dawn! Very cute and clever! Gorgeous photos of the beach! I can see why you didn't want to leave! Hugs!

ReplyDeleteYour owl bag is so stinkin cute Dawn! And you really got some great pictures of your beach trip, love the sunset one, can't wait til we go! Which beach did you go to?
ReplyDeleteIt is over at Ocean Isle Beach just north of Myrtle Beach. Quiet and nice. I love it here.
DeleteHe is too cute!!! Love the big eyes :) Gorgeous pictures too! Though I would be seeing sunsets more than sunrises LOL!

This is gorgeous, love the use of all those orange buttons....
ReplyDeleteIt is so cute Dawn! I love the buttons on his belly! And WOWIE on that multilayered bow of baker's twine! I'm glad you had a good time, and your photos are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour bag is just adorable. I can see why your son was so thrilled with it! And I have to say if I had the view that you do, I might never do anything but sit on my deck or walk the beach. The photos were amazing! They could easily belong to a vacation brochure!
ReplyDeleteToo cute Dawn! Glad that little tute came in handy cause you sure found a great way to put it to work. I don't think there's such a thing an a non-cute owl. LOL Great project and beautiful pics from your trip. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteCute bag! I, too, was wondering which beach-could be out my front door from the pic! Not too far-I am on Oak Island! Blessings, Sharon
ReplyDeletewhat a fun bag! I love it! I love North Carolina! My DH and I didn't want to come home after our trip either, and I've had a hard time adjusting to 'real life' when I got back. We hope to retire there someday!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant gift bag Dawn. So jealous of your beach photos, it looks so idyllic and peaceful. There is nothing more relaxing than hearing and looking at the ocean. We hope that when we retire we find a little house by the beach (we can dream can't we lol!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute Owl bag, I bet your son's party was a big hit, Dawn!!
ReplyDeleteYour beach vacation spot looks so tranquil and relaxing, great photos of the sunrise and seagulls. So glad you had a chance to escape the regular routine, it is reviving, isn't it?
Oh my golly what an awesome creation Dawn. Wow. Beautiful pictures. Glad you got to go to the beach. I love the ocean. Inspiring for sure. I sent you and email.
ReplyDeleteThis is so awesome..I love it! :)
