If you are like me I hate spending money on those decorative gift bags and cards. They are way to over priced if you ask me. I love just buying the plain colored bags and decorating them to match a card. I have been doing them for birthdays and recently a baby shower. The kids love that their bag and card go together and I try to coordinate with the theme of their party to make it extra special. My son was invited to his friend bowling party. Using my Cricut and some card stock I was able to put together this themed card. Unfortunately, none of my cartridges had a bowling pin so I had to cut that by hand. The next gag and card I did was a for a baby shower. This baby shower was a Seuss Theme party but Cricut has not come out with a Dr. Seuss Cartridge yet. I am really hoping its in the near future. My last bag and card combo I'm posting was for a friend of mines daughter who was turning 1. When using the Cricut to make the bigger bags I usually make the images fit to size so it will use the whole 12x12 paper to make my cuts. The cards I typically cut at 5 and 1/2 inch and size my other cuts to fit accordingly. In my future posts I will post specifics in case you'd like to make your own.
