I've been busy this week working on my Christmas Cards--I'll be sharing these periodically, but I wanted to get a quick post in about some cards I made from some gift bags I'd been saving from Starbucks! I wonder if you might remember when they came out with the Kraft Paper style gift bags at Christmas, with the red/white snow scenes? I kept several of them and cut out scenes I thought I might use later for cards. See if any of the scenes look familiar. These are just a few of them...quick & simple!

| Applied to white cardstock with hand-written message |

Inked the edges with white ink; added vellum stickers, vellum message
with snowflake brad, and red metallic cording |
Keep an eye out this Christmas season as your gifts are bagged at the store...you might just find some interesting materials you can repurpose & put to good use for all kinds of projects...including, of course, Christmas Cards, wrapping paper, or even after Christmas thank you cards.
Lovely cards. I love the ideas. Thank you
