Drawstring Gift Bags for the card sets

After making all the cards for the in-law ladies, I decided I needed some way to present them nicely.  It was a rainy, cold, icky day and I didn't want to drive to the fabric store, plus I wanted to save money...SO...I found some scrap pillowcase material I had bought this past summer.

I used Staz-On and stamped with my oldie Christmas House Mouse stamp and sentiment.  I used thin red ribbon to make the "draw-string" for the bags.  Dang, I guess I need tags now....this is becoming a never ending project.

approximately 6x9 after all the sewing

used my Misti for the stamping

Jingle All the Way

Yippee....it's September Release Day at Doodle Pantry.  The darling pre-colored image I used is from the set called "Jingle Ants".  There are 3 different images, sentiments and papers..how about that!!!

On the inside, I used the Inky Antics Golden Honeycomb paper.  When the card is completely opened, you can see the nice round ornament, ball or bell but I couldn't keep it fully opened and take the picture so that's why it doesn't look so round...haha
