It's in the bag......................

Hiya

Is it a gift card bag or is it an different Christmas card or is it the start of an advent calendar?????

Today I thought I would have a go at making something for SSSS challenge.This week it is anything goes..........

I have been thinking about using Tim Holtz Sizzix Paper Bag die for Christmas bags to use to put gift cards into as I find the cards that come with gift cards are a bit bland and seem as if you haven't really put much thought or effort into the present.  When actually that is probably not the case at all.

So with that thought in mind this is what I came up with.  (sorry the photo is not the best)

I was sitting there as you do staring at the finished piece and thought ..............Now this would make a really different Christmas card.  You could make the bag up and pop a card inside.

So with that thought in mind...............(not a great card, but you get the idea).

Then after a little more reflection I thought that with a little bit of work you could make up 24 of these bags and decorate them to use as an alternative to an advent calendar, you could hang them on a small tree that you can buy these days and fill them with your favourite goodies......................
