Doily Stenciled Birthday Bag by Michelle


Using a medium sized SRM Muslin Bag and one of SRM's new paper doilies, Michelle Giraud has created a stenciled gift bag and matching card perfect for any little birthday gift. 

Using the doily as a stencil, Michelle placed a sheet of cardstock inside the bag so the marker did not run through.  She centered the doily on top of the muslin bag and used permanent Copic markers, placing the little dots inside the holes of the doily.  When complete, she lifted the doily, filled in a few that she might have missed and then added a little bit of red marker for contrast.   To the center space Michelle added one of the Happy Birthday stickers from SRM's new Take 2 Birthday stickers. Brilliant!

Then Michelle repeated the process to create a matching card!

 Such a happy pair!  Who would not love to receive this work of art done so lovingly by an amazing crafter?  Thanks Michelle for this fabulous idea.

Love how the muslin bags can become a palette for stamping or stenciling and how the doily becomes a stencil.  So much fun!
