Default can i brag? LOVE my paper bag album!

i figure i can show all the pages off here in the forum, and link to this post in my gallery upload, instead of adding a bajillion uploads thanks in advance for looking, i had a lot of fun!

i ended up buying teal lunch bags 4/$1 at walmart today instead of using regular brown lunch bags

ty girls! :-*

at walmart (the one near my house, at least) they had these bags near the gift wrap stuffs... i think there were orange ones, red and white. there may have been girl colors, but i wasn't looking for them, so it's possible that i just missed 'em

That's fabulous! I bought my bags already, but I cannot decide what kind of album to make. With making one every month, I am kinda running out of people to give them to and ideas.

That is a fabulous idea Laura! I love the colored bags (I'm definitely lifting that idea) and it's a great way to save children's artwork. Off to find some colored bags . . . thanks for the inspiration!

You did an awesome job on this. My hybrid is my project for today. I think I am turning mine into an animal journal......pics of animals from the zoo with facts about each animal. My boy would love that to look through.

See all of the art he does at daycare is huge and would never fit in the bag. Maybe I will make something for a my sister or niece to take to concerts or movies tickets or something. IDK. Thanks for the ideas

Love the idea of storing kiddie art this way. It came out lovely, especially with the turquoise colour chosen. :-)
