Well, I got this idea for the front closing by the back panel “wrapping” around to the front and closing with Velcro from my friend Sue who showed me this GREAT paper bag book that she made.
Well, I have trouble with the folding and the general logistics of paper bags, so I wimped out and went with folded envelopes–it’s only two #10 envelopes inside.
The “cover” is an 8 1/2 by 11 Cranberry Crisp paper cut 4 1/4 x 11 and scored (see more details about the creation of this in my Gallery).
