Delivery Time

How about these cute bags? Those flowers are just full of summer. I can't wait to fill them with some cookies to cheer up a friend. As I am looking at them, I am already changing the stamp sets in my mind to Halloween and Christmas. Gift giving this year, is going to be great!

For my bags, I used an old retired stamp set that is an absolute favorite of mine. It would also look great with these sets:

Flowers: Flower Fancy (page 101 of the Idea Book)

Butterflies: Flight of the Butterfly (pg. 108)

Halloween: Batty for You (pg. 23)

Christmas: Sparkly & Bright (p. 41)

And these are just to name a few. Now my secret is in the bags: I bought a package containing 50 white paper lunch bags at Walmart for $1.63 (plus tax). I cut them with my paper cutter so they would be only 8 inches tall. These bags won't be able to hold a bunch of rocks but they are great for every day gift giving. And at that price, I can afford an extra stamp set.
