And now for my Project!


I chose to work with Ariel and Flounder as my besties!
I cut Ariel and Flounder out with my Cameo and did some inking to her rock. I also sprinkled white embossing powder onto it to get that molded look. The sentiment banner was cut using the Flag Dies 2 and the sentiment was stamped from the NEW Best Friends Stamp set. 
I created a treat bag topper by using the Layered Frame and Journal Die. I folded a piece of paper in half and then lined up the fold just under the top cut line. This gave me a solid piece with a front and back and a fold at the top. Then I cut the chunky glitter paper with the die again and glued it to the front. 
I added the topper to a Gusset Bag that I filled with goodies.
