Packaging: French Clip Art

August 16, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 11 Comments

I discovered lots of lovely French Clip Art today over at The Graphics Fairy, including a free label of the French Chocolat Cafe.

I resized the image and printed it on some little white paper bags. I added some striped grosgrain ribbon and Japanese washi masking tape.

Perfect little gift bags for chocolates or treats.

I was inspired to print on paper bags after seeing the Halloween Bags over at Domestic Anarchy.
I have linked this project up to Brag Monday at the Graphics Fairy.
