CR: Decorated Paper Bag Letter

I participated in a swap similar to this, but can't find it or the original swap host.....If it's you, please let me know and I'll give you credit.

In this swap, let's reuse a paper bag by making a decorated paper bag letter for your one partner.

I personally use paper bags often, as I love the texture and feel of the bags, not to mention, it helps keep them out of the landfill. Re-use any kind of clean paper bag, but you must art on it in some way. Cut it down to the size of letter you want to send, or use the size of the bag to create your envelope. You will need to open the bag up to write a letter to your partner on the inside of the bag itself. You may also include a drawing or art on the inside of the bag but it should have some type of note on the inside. Tip.....leave enough space around your writing to close/seal your bag. You can glue it, tape it, sew it, shut. On the outside of your paper bag, decorate it in some way, even if it already has a printed design...just add to that design. Maybe you want to rubber stamp it, or paint it, or doodle it, or print images on it, or collage on it....whatever you want. You may want to indicate where the recipient should open the bag. Do NOT cover the whole paper bag envelope in masking/clear tape.
