Baby Shower gift bag

Here is the gift bag that I made for the baby shower. There was much ooohing and ahhing over it. I was very pleased with the way it turned out and happy the mommy liked it so much. (The card I made is a few posts down.) I lightly attached the project to the bag so the mommy-to-be could easily remove it and put it in the baby's scrapbook. The mommy said she is going to frame it and put it in the baby's room because they have no artwork in the room yet. Yes, the theme of the nursery is sheep since they raise them.

Supplies used:
Cricut cart.- Twinkle Toes (heart and layers were all cut at 9")
                    Animal Kingdom (lambs and layers were cut at 4" and 3")
Papers are Colorbok and The Paper Studio
Cuttlebug folder-D'vine Swirl
Martha Stewart colored pencils (for the nose and lines on the legs)
Martha Stewart black writing pen (to color the eyes)
Inkssential glossy accents (nose and eyes)
Tsunkineko Sheer Shimmer Spritz- sparkle over the entire project
White gift bag from Wal-Mart
