Here's a sampling of the 42 gift bags to match the six different mini-composition books I made for the baby shower. Thanks to genie1314 for this great design: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers Besides the mini comp books, we included a woven and beaded bookmark made by my sister-in-law, a fancy chocolate and a sprig of lavender tied with fancy fibers. Our color scheme was Mexican Fiesta and these gift bags were very festive indeed! Faux Diamond Dust used for some of the images for extra sparkle.

WOW... these are ALL so bright and beautiful (and VERY nicely done!). Awesome color scheme. You know I also like?.... not ALL are cutesy baby images.... GREAT mix!
(Hope that comment doesn't upset any 'cutesy baby image' lovers! ;) I didn't intend it to.)

Now these, I just can't get over. I'm totally in love with all the bright colors and the patterns on each one of them. I SO want that Word By Word set and everything on Page 81--the baby rattle wheel, etc. You put everything together so artfully here. Amazing how you used all those different sets on these. I love them ALL!!!

Hi Connie - Thanks! Yes, the mini Genie Bags are made with two quarter sheets of cardstock. I believe the regular ones are made with half sheets. Actually, I trimmed my cardstock to 4 inches wide to fit the little craft bag better. Linda
