Paper Bag Card

Good morning,

I have a new card for you today...these paper bag cards are my new favorite!

I like making them with the regular "brown paper bag" because I think that gives it a more vintage look, but I also like using the colored bags, if you can find them. I found a bunch of different colored bags at Michael's Craft Store by the party bags. They were reasonably priced and came in a variety of colors.

I used 3 different Maggies on this card. Tilda Picking Lilacs, Tilda with Key and Tilda with Lace Jeans.
