With Christmas fast approaching I started my Handmade Gifts early so I am not in a crunch when I run out of time!! I love the dollar bins at Target and the last time I was there I found the cutest accessory bags and even business card holders!! So along with my Spellbinder dies, Grand Calibur Machine and a few other “scraps” I had hanging around my craft room I came up with a darling embellished Make-up Bag that was oh so easy to make!!
I gathered a few coordinating fabric scraps, Heat-n-Bond, Spellbinder Dies and started to weave my web!!LOL!!
After fusing the fabric pieces together with wrong sides facing I then passed them through my Grand Calibur to cut out my shapes to create the flowers!!
I used the Spellbinder die Labels Twenty-four to make the above flower. I curled the edges to make it look like it was in bloom and to give it dimension! I used my fabric hot glue to secure the pieces to look like a bloom!!
For this flower I used Spellbinder die Spiral Blossom. I just worked with the fabric until it looked how I wanted it and then I pressed it flat with a hot iron! I used my fabric hot glue to secure it in place.
I pulled together some more bits and pieces and started arranging them on the bag.
After I decided where I wanted everything I used my fabric hot glue to secure everything! No sewing involved!! A burnt finger or two but no sewing!!
So one gift down about 65 more to go!!! LOL!!!
I am in love with my Grand Calibur and the dies!! I keep buying more and more!! I am so excited to share with you all the fun things I make with my new “toy”!!
