I am participating in the PTI August Blog Hop tonight, and the challenge this month is to incorporate a good old paper bag into our project!! I created a super cute mini album (which has yet to be filled), along with a little keepsake packaging for it. Both are made out of paper bags, and turned out just oh so cute! Let me know if you want to see a video tutorial for this and I can make one for sure!!!
Packaging
Mini Album
Cardstock: Hawaiian Shores
Patterned Paper: Library Ledger, 2009 Bitty Dot Basics
Stamps: Fancy Flourishes, Pond Life, Little Lady, Text Style Backgrounds
Ink: Dark Chocolate, True Black (PTI), Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze (SU!), Antique Linen, Frayed Burlap (Tim Holtz Distress Ink)
Punch: Scalloped Scallop Border, Bracket Border, Medium Corner Rounder (EK Success), Threading Water Border (Fiskars)

Hope you enjoy!

So pretty! Love the tag on the cover! BTW- you left a comment on my blog about the door hanger, I believe it was from the Locker Talk Cricut cartridge. I searched for "door hanger" on my Gypsy, which you can also do on Design Studio and picked the one I liked best- so I know there are at least a couple others on other cartridges.
