This week my Doubledog Dare pal Anne (aka jdmommy) dared our group to come up with a card that had to do with an envelope. Hmmm, envelope. Envelope. All week I thought about how does one incorporate an envelope into a card. It finally dawned on me last night while falling asleep -- duh!! BAGalope!! One of my first-ever projects I learned when I first started stamping. I was so excited about that project, I still have prototypes that I saved from way back then. If you're interested in a pattern, here's the original one I used: Bagalope Instructions . I have since graduated to eyeballing the whole thing and so any imperfections are a result of my lazyness to pull out the pattern again!! I embellished it to make it a holiday gift bag by adding a poinsettia flower, some fab holiday ribbon and some plastic bells (Oh comeon!! Gawdy is totally "in" during the holidays!!).
