I put pictures of my first attempt at the paper bag album in webshots. Thanks so much for the idea and directions. I plan on making more in the future. My sister has already done one also. I made this album for a friend for Christmas. I didn't really want to spend a lot of money and I didn't know what to get her. Then I seen this idea. The great thing is I only had to spend 1.00 for the scrap piece of fabric to tie it together. Thanks for looking.

That's really neat Shannon! The tractors are just too cute. Are the paper bag albums easy enough for kids to make? It might be something DD would like to do.
That is just adorable Shannon!!
I may have to scraplift that one for a little girls I know!:>)
Tks for some great ideas!!
neato!!
Here are 2 different sets of directions I got. I believe it was Hannah or Trish. I did the one with the first instructions where you tear the bag apart. I did too bags so I would have more pages also. Some just fold it in half using a big grocery sack or a lunch sack. The lunch sacks at our grocery store seemed too small for me.
