Man Bag

Morning Folks!
How are we all?  I hope all is well. I am fully recovered from a killer migraine, I went into work on Friday & only lasted about an hour before I was sent home spent all Friday aft & night & most of Saturday in bed, curtains shut & eye mask firmly on!  So I've been missing in blogland for a few days & boy have I missed it!
 
So I have a new post today.  I have made a man bag.  A perfect gift bag for a man who loves fishing - well fishermen always have bags too don't they?!?!?! LOL
I have used my bag boards from Crafter's Companion, I printed some stripy paper from the Everyday Mulberry Wood CD Rom, I colored my image with spectrum noirs & added the Mulberry Wood "You're my favourite catch" greeting.  I added some jewels (which are wonky in this picture but I sorted them out after taking this!) & I added a picket fence diesire diecut, with some small punched flowers with jewels centers.  I added blue ribbon for the handle & I thought you could add some jelly worms inside - you know with it being a fishing bag!!!
 
I am entering my bag into the following challenges:
Allsorts Challenge - For Men Only
Forever Friends - Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp - Get in Shape.
 
To find my supplies bag boards, Mulberry Wood Everyday, Spectrum Noirs, Picket Fence all from HERE.
 
I am off to get ready to go to work.  Enjoy your Sunday & see you all soon! x x x x
