*~* Altered Gift Bag Tutorial *~*
Here you go ladies!! Hope you enjoy!




1. Find the kit that you want to use in the digi shop. I chose to use Robot Nation by Marcie Reckinger to create a fun gift bag for a little boy.

2. Once you have purchased and downloaded your kit, you should open all of the pieces that interest you into Photoshop or which ever other software you are choosing to use.

Image

3. Next, begin layering anything you may want layered or edited in your program. Here I chose to combine the two wheels and make it look like they were entwined in one another. It just makes it easier to print and cut.

Image

4. Now that I have downloaded, created, and printed my pieces, I have gathered the rest of my supplies and I am ready to begin putting it all together.

Image

5. First thing I out on was my black ribbon. This just adds some texture to the bag other than paper and gives it a little character. I used Xyron Mounting Tape to affix it to the bag.

Image

6. Next I affixed the gears and the robot to the bag using 3D stickers to make the pieces stand out from the bag.

Image Image

7. Next you can just add some embellishments to the bag if you choose. I chose to add these little sayings that came with the kit.

Image

8. Here is my finished product layed out and with tissue paper in the bag. Hope you enjoy!!
