Papertrey August Blog Hop Challenge

This month's challenge is a brown bag challenge! Use a simple brown paper bag in your crafting project. I often use lunchbags for projects, so I was so excited about this and had so many ideas I couldn't keep them straight! Finally, today a new idea came to me & I had to do it.

I used my Cricut to cut a door hanger (black) I than cut another one smaller in Harvest Gold and just cut the top off to use as a layer. I stamped the Harvest Gold layer with the Alphabet background from School Time in Pure Poppy. I than attached the gold layer and stamped "lunch money" with Outlines Alphabet in Fresh Snow.

For my pocket, I cut the lunchbag to a single piece of 4x4 and scored 3 sides at 1/2 inch, folded and attached along the 3 edges to make a pocket.

I used the Fillable Frames #7 frame stamp and die and Simple Alphabet to stamp my daughter's name. The top circle and apple are from the School Time set as well, and I just stamped on Chartreause cardstock and used a circle punch to punch out. A little Harvest Gold ribbon is added on top.

Now, I can just put this on the door whenever my daughter needs to bring in lunch money for school or a special field trip! (By the way- she loves it!) :)

Thanks for stopping- I can't wait to see all the great projects for this fun challenge!

Hugs- Kelly
