This card was the result of an afternoon experimenting with some tissue paper and the Bitty Birthday stamp set. The stamp image has tissue coming out the top of the gifts bags and I wanted to see if I could replace that with real tissue for a great 3-D look.
I started by stamping the image and cutting out the tissue part of the image. I then took some small squares of tissue and 'scrunched' them to fit behind the bags in the way I wanted. I only had white tissue paper so I simply coloured it using my Stampin' Write Markers. To finish the effect I popped the bags up on Stampin' Dimensionals.
As I chose a really bright colour scheme for the bags, I kept the rest of the card pretty simple. Overall I think the effect works - although it was a little fiddly!
