Creative Sisters Monday Challenge

Happy Monday everyone!!  I am so excited to be joining my awesome sister on http://pattilynncreations.blogspot.com/ for her first challenge.  Patti will be holding a challenge every
1st Monday of the month and I will be hosting a challenge every 3rd Monday.  We will each have a give away and at the end of the month, we will combine everyone that has entered and draw for a grand prize.

For Patti's first challenge she has chosen to use Create A Critter - my all favorite!

I decided to make something a little different.  I got the idea from Angela Juda a Stampin Up demonstrator,
you can find  her video on You Tube under ChicnScratch.  On her video she calls it a Mothers Day bag, I turned it into a little gift bag for a new baby.  You can use any size bags, from the real small all the way up to the regular lunch size bags.  I cut the back and front layers 1/4 of an inche larger than the bag.  The word window punch, from Stampin Up was used to cut out the handle.  Of course you can decorate these anyway you want, I think these would be great to use for little Easter, Halloween or even fill it with some colored basket filler and put some small candles in it for Christmas - the possibilities are endless.  Hope you try it and have fun!



 The lamb was cut out at 3 1/2 inches and on my computer I typed in the saying, punched it out using the scallop oval circle punch from Stampin up.

I hope you like it - don't forget to go to my sisters blog http://pattilynncreations.blogspot.com/ for her project and sign up for her blog candy.  I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.
