Winter. Spring. Summer. Fall.
Burlap. Burlap. Burlap. Burlap.
That’s the plan. Today, I’m giving seasonal makeovers to a few burlap bags. Clear & Simple Stamps has just added these burlap beauties to the line up and you’ll be happy they did. I sort of love burlap and these make for perfect packaging…and you know how I feel about packaging! Love it.
Winter and burlap seem to go hand-in-hand, right? The rustic look of it is so pretty. For this little ensemble, I with with classic rustic tones and a healthy dose of gold. Gold goes with everything.

Pastel blooms transformed the burlap bag into a lovely little bunch of springtime yumminess. I’m really loving how great that lace trim works with the bag. Just glue it on with fabric or craft glue and it adds a great accent.

I struggled with creating embellishments for a summertime feel. At first burlap and summer didn’t seem like a natural combination. I went with a simple polka dot pattern …I’m liking the final product. That pinwheel is definitely the star of the show here! I made it with red felt on one side and polka dot stamped paper on the other. Muy cute.

For this autumn ensemble, I took the design from these wedding favors and added some Clear & Simple style. The apple cards are the perfect fillers for this bag and the handstamped liners are a great addition!

Wow, what great idea’s for packaging. You always knock it out of the ball park, you are so talented! I the pastel stamping of the stationary and the pinwheel idea. Love the pinwheel!

Thank for taking time to put up such great idea’s and sharing your talent with us. Have a great Sunday.
LOVE these bags, Amber. your coordinated creations are amazing! The flowers and pinwheel are nothing short of GORGEOUS!! Is the paper glued to the felt, or all just connected int he centre?
