DSP (or catty pages) bags -

So recently I saw an great video by Ronda Wade showing gift bags made out of two sheets of DSP.  I wanted to link it here - but I cannot find it now :(  But I remembered making them from years and years ago - I'm pretty sure I first saw the idea at a Stampin' Up! convention presentation.  I have so many old catalogs that I just hate to throw away, so I thought I'd adapt the pattern to make some cute little gift bags for my doorprizes at events.  Here are a couple I came up with -

They were so easy to make - that I decided to feature a larger DSP bag at my clubs this month for one of our projects.  Here was my sample -

This is retired DSP  and I used the leftovers from the bag for decorating a matching 3x3 card.  

Here it is from the top.  The ribbon handles are just fed through and tied in a knot.  So - I'm going to try and come up with some simple instructions and post them here soon - with a few more samples I made.  In the meantime - hope you are inspired to do something creative today!  ~Maureen
