Here are a few cards I made from paper bags, following Mish's directions. I created the card fronts, attaching all elements, then sewed the pocket.
These are two of the holiday thank you's my kids wrote to relatives. Each card features three inserts - each of my three kids wrote their thank you on an insert. The finished cards measure 6-1/4" x 4-3/4". October Afternoon Very Merry papers used; Papertrey Ink stamps; jute twine and large metal rimmed tags.
Here's some others, using 7gypsies Conservatory papers:
These are so much fun to make! Thank you for stopping by today!
These are so adorable! They may not be your idea, but they sure are "Cindy" through & through!

These cards are fabulous too? What stamp did you use for the tag on the egg paper bag? (If you don't mind my asking.)
