Mini Shaker Vintage Truck Gift Bag by Steph

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here sharing one of the new mini shakers.   With 14 new shakers in the store, I chose to use the Mini Shaker Vintage Truck  for today's project.

The  Mini Shaker Vintage Truck comes with 4 chipboard pieces  plus one acrylic piece.

I painted the die cut pieces with red paint then poured Gold Glamour Pigment on the top panel to give it a little shimmer.

The base truck was painted with gold paint, then I  also poured Gold Glamour Pigment on the base panel to give it a little shimmer.

Gluing 2 of the die cut trucks to the base, I stamped a phrase inside.

Placing mini beads in the cavity, I then glued the acrylic panel (remember to remove the film on both sides of the panel) and the last die cut truck in place.  I placed a heavy book on top and let it sit overnight before continuing with my project.

Using travel papers, I decorated the front of a gift bag.  Then I placed the truck slightly off center.

How fun this would be to give to someone who is heading off on a journey whether that be to college or even a scheduled trip.  Fill it with some of the recipient's favorite goodies -  some candy, some cookies, a notebook and even a pen to document the journey.
 
Thanks for stopping by.
