Instructions

Separate the two sides of the canvas rectangle shape at the long side by cutting the thread.

 

Use vinyl or decoupage glue to seal the edges from fraying. Do the same on all sides.

 

Using a sponge, the cardboard and the spicy mustard mists create light shades on the canvas.

Cut a 7cm x 5.5cm piece of canvas, stamp it with the Savor the Moment stamp and black ink.
Cut a canvas in circle of 6cm diameter. Stamp “MENU” using the clear alphabet stamps.
Finally cut a 10cm x 8cm piece of canvas and fray on the long sides.
Using the mists paints and a sponge make light shades on the edges of the shapes.

Cut a 17cm long stipe of the burlap fringe and cut in half at long. Paint with the cardboard mist.

 

Stamp with blank ink and the script stamp to the bottom side of the canvas bag.

 

Glue all the pieces and embellishments on the bag.

 

Punch a hole on 10 recipe cards and tie with some hemp cord. Place the cards in the bag.
