Okay.....and a sweet little surprise for last.
When we decorate for Christmas... we pile popcorn in a bowl..
When I saw this sweet little Shelf Elf set
I thought a sweet one
I thought a sweet one
would look so cute on a little treat bag!
I used distress inks on the elf and over distress
sponged leaves and berries.
Fussy cut for extra fun and added some
sweet embellishments
Over the top of my photos I added
a digital overlay and digital
sentiment stripwith cork in the background
I adore this elf..I hope you will want
to play with them too!
