Here is the
Paper Bag Baby Card
I made for my friend, JD (see her blog HERE),
who is a former Design Team member
on my Challenge blog, Paper Playtime.

Bottom Flap:
Poem reads: A cute little baby boy, To cuddle & squeeze, To pamper & play with, And bounce on your knees.
Inside:
Poem reads: A baby's one thing the whole world adores, The best part of all is Emerson's all your's!
Pull out TAG:
*Fibers & Ribbons on tag from stash.
Card base is actually a *YELLOW PAPER BAG that came in a pack of 12 from Michael's. The paper bag dimensions are 4 5/8" x 2 7/8" x 8 5/8".
I folded the bag in half so that the opening (top) was on the left.
The bottom flap is on the right and folds back & forth for an extra fun fold on this "card".
All solid papers from Walmart's cardstock packs.
All pattern papers from DCWV "Baby Boy Stack" (1/2 the stack has glittered sheets.).
*Buttons & hemp from stash.
The 2 poems were Googled, customized, and printed on white cardstock from Walmart.
I used my software "PrintMaster" to open up a Business Card document for the correct printing size.
I printed the poem using Minya Nouvelle @ 12 pts.
Both of the digi art cliparts are from DJ Inkers (I love their digis / clip art!).
The poems measure 3 1/2" x 2". Perfect for this size Paper Bag Card sections.
Everything is inked around the edges with ColorBox chalk ink.
