Little bags


The other day whilst making my daily visits to crafting friends' blogs I saw a sweet little bag on Sue's blog. She had made it following a video tutorial by Angie Kennedy Juda at chic n' scratch which created these little bags from a sheet of 12x12.
I decided this was just what I had been looking for as I wanted something pretty that would hold a little set of cards and envelopes. Of course, once I'd made it I thought that if only it were a little smaller it would be ideal for holding stamped images, so I then tried folding it the other way round to make it shorter and "hey presto" it was perfect!
These are my first attempts so "could do better" but I'm sure they won't be my last as I love the fact that they are useful but look so pretty and would be perfect as little gifts.
