Pocket Fold Stationary

Here is a new version of the pocket tag card. I turned the card and folded just a little differently. I used a Fisker corner punch, rivets set with my Crop-a-dile, ribbon, flower brad, and some left over stickers from easter die set.

I have a PDF file I will post tomorrow night. It makes a nice stationary note instead of a card. I used light weight designer paper from DCWV. I used various sayings to make a tag set and inserted it into the front pocket. I added a brad and ribbon tag. I added flower brads to the inside sayings to add dimension. The back portion is not a pocket for opens for a half sheet of stationary.

Pocket Fold Card

Remember these pocket tag cards. They are really easy to make out of a 8.5"x11" sheet of decorative paper. You just pop in the tags and embellish the front. I used graphics from"Simply Spring" by Shelly Comisky at pccrafter.com. I added a couple of flower rivets to hold the layers in place. I have a new twist that I will be posting shortly. I am working on a tutorial now. Hope to have it posted by next weekend.

Paper Wallet

One of our students won state competition and is headed to nationals in Tennessee. This paper wallet holds a twenty dollar bill for her to spend on her trip, a tag to attach to her suitcase for easy sighting, and good luck sentiments.
I used specialty paper from K&C's Happy Trails. Stickers are semi-transparent with a bit of glitter. Magnet clasp was attached with two strips of card stock threaded through the opening and glued together. I tried my hand at top stitching for an accent on the outside. Sorry the bottom picture is a little blurred. The wallet was delivered, before I had a look at the photos. Of course I cut all of this out with my Gazelle. I think the file still need a pit of tweaking before I share. But I am pleased with the results.

Christmas Tags

To jazz up a package, try making tags. They fit nicely in a mint tin. I typed the labels on to sticker paper, trimmed and applied to the tin. Here is the poem I wrote for the back.

All presents are not equal

I really must say

Some are very special

In a very simple way.

Give an extra little touch

To that present you choose,

With a special little tag

Specialmade for you to use.

There is a set of twelve handmade tags using graphics from pccrafter.com. Some of the tags have double sided tape and some have ties. Of course no gift is complete without chocolate. I found this cute chocolate band aid. All of this fits nicely inside the tin.

Here is one of my favorite tags. I have included a PDF template for your use. It fits on a regular 8" x 11" paper as long as you use the boardless print setting.
