Paper Bag with Snail

 Hi everyone, I was bored Saturday night, watching TV and playing with my Gypsy. The end result is this paper bag. I used the Tag, Bag, Boxes & More and Paisley Cricut Cartridge. I thought it would be great for baby showers, party favors, etc. Hope you enjoy and let me know how yours turned out.
