Altered Starbucks Bag

Here's an idea for
making a quick gift bag using one from Starbucks (and an extra perk... the bag smells like the Verona that we carried home in it).



I sprayed the bag
with Lindy's Stamp Gang Creme Brulee Cream Starburst for a bit of shimmer.


I adhered on a 
Pink Paislee Artisan Elements swirl that I decorated with Eucalyptus Stickles (Kirsty has the AE here). I topped that with some Prima flowers, an I Am Roses bloom and a satin bow. Easy as 1 2 3. After I tucked in my gift, I put some color matching tissue in and now I'm all set to visit my sister and celebrate her birthday. Can't wait to show you the mini album I made her!

Thanks for stopping by!
