Dreaming Tree Simply Stripes bag for Bitten By the Bug 2 Box or bag challenge

It is time for a new challenge at BBTB2. Bitten By the Bug 2's Easter Bags, Boxes or Baskets challenge will be open for the next two weeks.  I have used another Dreaming Tree SVG for my project.  I received the Handy Handbags bundle free with a $10 purchase.  What a great deal!  This project wasn't as difficult as it looks.  I find watching the assembly videos really helps as Leo the owner gives you some great tips for completing each project.

I used Quick Quotes Spring Showers papers with a green shimmer card stock base.

.The front pocket is a versatile detail.

I used a magnet to keep it closed.

The pocket is the perfect size for a gift card.

I used a paper that was not uniformly patterned for the sides.  One side is more white washed wood and the other has more flowers.

One of Leo's tips was to fray the "tassels" which I did before rolling and adhering.

I also embossed the metallic copper cuts to add more detail.

One last look at this project.  I can't wait to make another bag in the bundle.
