My Vertical Paper Bag Idea -

Last weekend I went to 2 blog hops...  I'm not sure in which one I got this idea - I think I actually seen it on both hops - but I am not positive!  Either way - the following idea is all because of THAT - one of the hops!  I went onto YouTube.com and found mysistersscrapper and watched the series of video's before I even started on the "creation".  I have scrapbooked for 15 years but have never done a paper bag album...I am now hooked!  This gal has a bunch of video's...you want to start at this particular one and go all the way through...  I'm not going to give you the directions because of hers!  
This is my front cover - for the entire project I used the following supplies:  

6 paper bags
K&Company TC Cottage Garden paper
Colorbok white cardstock
Unknown brand red, yellow and green cardstock
K&Company Grand Adhesions stickers
K&Company stickers unknown "name"
K&Company Susan Winget die cut cardstock & acetate
Basic Grey Designer Rub-ons
Making Memories pockets
Pressed Petals real flower confetti

Dimensional pop dots
Family Treasures corner punch
Paper trimmer w/score attachment
Recollections rhinestone stickers 
Making Memories Decorative Brads (square and circles)
Sizzix die cut machine - tags, Wildcard & Envelope Bitty Daisy, Flower #1, Flower #6    Sizzlets, Leaf Stem, Flower Power #2 

For my front cover - you can see the tag you can take out at the top...  Either adding journaling to it, or a photo, or whatever you want!  I wanted plenty of places you could add photos to - and pockets to put things in - other than the main pocket at the top!  I figured for me - as I decide what to do with this and add the photos and journaling, I could add more of the larger photo matt's to the other side - to match that color scheme!  You can see this main front piece also has a pocket with the booklet in it.  The other great feature of this page I love is the main piece is also a hidden part as well to add photos or journaling to it.  
This is the front page as you open up the album itself.  I will show you the cover on another post!  This is by far the funnest album I have made, and can't wait to start my next one!!!!  Make sure to check back tomorrow for page 2 and 3!!!!  
Thanks for stopping by!!!
