Miss Gingerbread Tilda
It is always so much fun to find a little surprise inside a card.
Ghirardelli chocolate yum! "A Christmas goodie from me to you - Eat it fast before I do!"
This is the back - I was experimenting and believe me I learned a lot! First I wanted to leave the bag showing. Then I glued the die cut card stock to the bag. Easy right? The next day I realized the glue went through the paper and glued the actual bag part together. Oh no! I had no place to put my gingerbread man - oh woe is me. But I did learn so will try again cause I love these paper bag cards!!
Please visit my friends to see how they are celebrating Christmas in May.

Hi Sandy, your card is wonderful! Love the heart circle and your corner die too. Tilda is so sweet!
Pretty darn cute, Sandy. Love the colors, and your tongue-in-cheek sentiment is just what I'd expect from you. Always a treat to see your work.

Really pretty card. The colors and your coloring are awesome.
Sandy how cool!!! I didn't even realize it was a paperbag card. I've never seen that kind of card, only for scrapbooking. I want to try it too!! I think I might for Mother's Day. I love it! And I love the inside with the chocolate and the heart circle border is really cool!
Hugs,
Jackie

Hi Sandy!
Wow! I would never have thought that was a paper bag card. I have never made one. I love the frame around Tilda and the corners. your coloring looks fabulous. Hmmmmm...the best part is the chocolate inside. I looooove chocolate.
Hey Sandy!! I'm dancing, I'm singing and I already partied. Yahoo!
Hugs Maz
What a great christmas card is this, the design is beautiful, bye Mascha
Wow, is Big Hill where u live? So beautiful. If I live in such a place, I would be inspired too, to create beautiful cards!
Sandy, this is just adorable. I love everything about this. The detail, the coloring and the papers you chose are all so perfect and what a great way to hide a special treat. Beautiful card.
Oh Sandy!!! What a cheerful holiday card...the colors are so stunning and your treatment of that cutie is just beautiful!!! Such a beautiful job on such a simple brown bag!!! I am AMAZED!!!! Gorgeous job, sweetie!!! Big hugs.,.Jacque
Hey sweetie!
I was here this morning (now it's nearly evening where I live), admired your beauty heree, then headed to Cathy-Lynn where you sent us, then to Claudia where this bag originally comes from- I guess...lol and by the time I wanted to get back my sweet baby woke up:) Well, now he is fast asleep... so far.
What can I say? Your card is simply adorable and definitely something I have to "borrow" from you. That yummy chocolate bar in the inside pocket would make a perfect gift not only for Christmas, perfect for any card. I really have a hard time with ornating that inside part. Now I know what I have to do:)
Love your coloring- simply perfect with the right colors and lightness. You chose perfect colors for a perfect Chrissy card and love everything about it.
Oh, and that sentiment... love it:)
Thanks for the ideas and for such a delightful Chrismas card. Look forward to see more from you!
Hugz and have a happy, warmer Sunday!

Hi Sandy, I like your card especially the chocolate. hehe. I am gluing my card pieces together wrong today too. Weird. I think it is just our creativity is flowing and our fingers are not following. Have a great day.
Not sure where my post went last night but it sure didn't appear on your blog! Love the paper bag card. The pockets are perfect for little searcys. Can't wait to see what you do next, big sister!! XXOO
Such a beautiful card, Sandy!!! Great paper bag card :o)
Tilda is coloured wonderfully! Love your design.
Great treat on the inside - you know I love chocolate :o)
Love your little rhyme.....
Big hugs, Candy
Sandy - What a beautiful card. You did such a great job. I love yor coloring and all the die cuts. Just gorgeous.

Knowing your love for cards and communicating with your friends arround the world who love them as well, I thought I would leave you a happy mothers day message on your site.
I hope the card and gift we sent made it up the mountain and has found its way to Sandy Lane. Your cards are awesome but they only capture a fraction of your overall creativity. Tell Art we said hello and have fun walking in the spring weather.
Love Scott
I guess it would have been more complete if I would have included a big hug and said:
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY MOM.
love again, Scott
Sandy, beautiful card!

This is gorgeous Sandy! I'm sorry for not coming by sooner, I had a sick child on my hands for 2 weeks. But I am here now to admire this gorgeous card. I love the heart circle die you used here.
