I didn’t mean to leave you hanging last week! My mom and I made a last minute trip to visit my niece at camp. It was a long trip but very worth getting to see her! So I promise to make it up to you this week. I’ll start with a Petite Pocket Note Card.
I die cut the Petite Pocket in Rose Red and cut off the side flaps of the pocket. Then I die cut just the front of the pocket with the First Edition DSP – careful that you turn the writing the correct way (don’t ask me how I know this!) On the DSP I sponged the edges and stamped the stem image from Flower Fancy in Always Artichoke. Punch 5 scallop circles and wad them up! “Un-wad” them and stack them on top of each other. Pierce them in the center and insert a Pretty in Pink brad to hold them together. Then start with the top layer and pull each scallop up until you have a carnation. Use crystal Effects or a glue dot to adhere to the front.
Use one of the circles from the die to create the closure. Insert a brad and use a dimensional to make it hold the bottom shut. Stamp Just for You from Teeny Tiny WIshes on Pink Pirouette DSP and punch out with the 3/4 x 15/16 oval (what a name!)
Line the inside with Pink Pirouette DSP. Use the Crop a Dile to punch a hole in the upper left corner and tie a piece of Always Artichoke seam bindng through it. Now you can tie it on a package!
An unconventional way to use this wonderful die! I’ll show you more tomorrow! Enjoy – Hugs, Fran
Absolutely gorgeous! The choice of colors are so elegant and the dimensional flower enhances the project. Bravo!
This notecard convinced me why I need this pocket die. What a cute and unusual way to use this die. Lovin it!
