PAPER BAG CARD
I am so excited! This card turned out so darn cute and its a paper bag! I saw a YouTube video by Claudia Rosa where she showed a card made from an everyday brown paper lunch bag. I think her card was a birthday card for a male but with Christmas right around the corner I thought I'd transform it into a Christmas card. Drum roll please..............
This is a large size lunch bag that I got from Target. The papers are from a Christmas Paper pack by Paper studio that I bought from Hobby Lobby and some Kraft paper. Ribbons are from an old spool of ribbon so I have no idea where I got it from. I used misc cling stamps and some green snowflakes to add a little bling. The 2 ribbon on the front side pull out to expose little tags which the recipient could use as gift tags if they'd like. I put together some kits for my ladies group to put together the next time we do our stamping. These are large cards so homemade envelopes would be a good idea.
Decided to try one that doesn't open and just has a tag pocket in front. It turned out real cute too. Kind of wondering what other color combinations I could use and whether or not the smaller lunch bags would work. I'll have to give that a try.
I'll write up the directions for these after I try the smaller bag size. I can't wait to mail these as I'm sure the people who get them are going to love it!
Until Later....................
HAPPY CARDING!!!
