I have decided to play with the {happy birthday - small box} , the {merry word jumble} and the {floating leaves} for my little project.

The theme of our blog hop is CELEBRATION or PARTYYYYYYYYYYYY (on, Dude). It was up to us designers how we would like to interpret this theme and I am sure by now everyone is probably sick of yet another Christmas project, right? So, I am going with a very easy project that can be used for any occassion and at any time of the year: a Congratulations Paperbag, which allows you to fill it with whatever fits the occassion - there could be candy, stamps, baby clothes/toys.... anything goes.

The bag was created so quickly, I just stuck some scraps of paper onto the front, stamped the images I wanted onto cardstock and hand cut them to use as embellishments on the bag. If you don't count time time it took me to cut out and colour the stamped images, I would say it took no more than 10 minutes to create this project. With the cutting and colouring, it was probably around 30 - 45 minutes.

Now on to {gudrun's blog} to catch more fun ideas for all kinds of parties! Don't forget to leave a comment on each blog to be eligible for our blog hop prize! Good luck!
