Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge - Paper bag

I had some time, finally, so I decided to join in this week's Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge.     I decided to use a paper bag as a base for a Christmas Tag/Card that will attached to some baked goodies.    I used the same technique for creating a paper bag album but used only one paper bag.

I used one sheet of DCWV "The Homemade Christmas Stack".   The front cover shows the To and From for the tag, the inside is left blank to write on.   I did use my gypsy and expression to cut out two nutcrackers fron the Christmas cart. to use as embellishments on the inside of the card.   I used 3 different types of ribbons on the tag/card, the first is tied into a bow on the front, another is used for the binding and the third is used to tie on two baking charms and for the mini-tags.   I also attached a rolling pin charm to the front of the tag/card.    Included are 6 mini-tags that will be used to write sentiments on.   I will insert the recipe for the cookies into the paper bag opening.    Each mini-tag is embellished with a Christmas brad an a Peachy Keen Basic Doll face, which they look great on, who says you can only use a face on a doll?

Thanks to Peachy Keen for the challenge is was fun, I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.
