What do you do with your Christmas cards now that Christmas is over? I like to save them so I can remember who sent me cards last year. I am surprised some people still send me cards. I didn't send very many this year at all. I vow to do better next year though, ok, else some people will scratch me off their lists, lol. Here is a way you can store those Christmas cards ... inside a paper bag mini album. I like to pick out a few photo cards to decorate my album, then the rest go inside the bag. Let me show you ...
I decorated my cover with some Quick Quotes chipboard. The present was painted with gesso and then inked. The tree was finished with Inca Gold rub.
Lets look inside ...
What's great about paper bag minis is that you can add as many pages inside as you want. The rest of my cards can be stored inside the bag.
To keep the cards from falling out, tie a ribbon around your mini.
