Disney baby gift bag made using the Pooh and Friends Cricut cartridge.

Hello, friends!

 I hope you all had a great weekend! We finally finished up our move and I will spend the week settling in to my new craft room. I'm trying to get it exactly how I want it, so I keep moving things around. I'm hoping that I will be satisfied soon enough, so I can get back to crafting!


Today's Bitten By the Bug challenge required me to use a Disney character from one of the many Dinsey Cricut cartridges. I chose the Pooh and Friends cartridge because it has this cute little elephant named Lumpy on it. This cut is one I had never cut before and I thought he would make a cute baby bag. I just felt like cutting something that was not too overtly Disney if you know what I mean.

I used up a bunch of scraps to make this, so I am not sure about cardstock brands or colors.
I used a bit of white satin ruffle from Melissa Frances.
