So the scan of this didn't work out so well, it wasn't showing the color right now matter how much tweaking I did in Adobe. So I took a photo, and Luci decided to get in on the action ;)

I was so thinking I wouldn't end up using these cheap-ish foam bags I got at Michael's, right after I bought them, I thought...why did I buy these? Let alone TEN of them!? Lol But it worked out very well! A coworker loved the froggie bag and ordered more, and wanted a spider bag, too, sight unseen, as I hadn't made any yet

The foam bag is from Michael's, as mentioned, and the curly fabric purple sheer ribbon is, as well. It's one of those curled mass of curled ribbons you can buy that is just a gift wrap ribbon, all pretty and curled, but it's like a sheer fabric and it reallly, really holds its shape! I removed the staple holding it all together in the middle and use 1 piece at a time.

I stuck an EK Success precious finds clear rhinestone at the bottom of the ribbon, too. Also applied lavender stones of the same type on each foot.

I used SuedePaper in Violet, for the backing behind the spiderweb and for the QuicKutz spider cut. The spiderweb is a Halloweenies Dingbat (Silhouette cut) and I hand cut the backing behind it to basically vaguely outline it.

The spiderweb thread going down to the spider is embroidery floss, a pearlized silver. The spider, I forgot to mention, is hand outlined with black glitter pen and has black diamond stickles embellished eyes.

I further embellished the spiderweb with black diamond stickles at all the web intersecting points.

I tied the fabric curled ribbon to the front handle, and I took Paton's "Allure" in Amethyst and tied a small length to the front handle on the left side and also some small sheer ribbon and tied it below that on the left side, with ribbon ends turned inward, and then some Paton's "Cha-Cha" in purple and tied it above the "Allure". I copied that same pattern on the left side of the back handle. The "Allure" is basically eyelash yarn mixed with a very thin Chenille yarn, and the "Cha-Cha" is just eyelash yarn
