Hidden Double Pocket Tag

I made a hidden double pocket tag for my autumn journal.

In the pockets on each side there is place for journal cards, tags or a little surprise.
At first I made the tag with coffee stained paper.
I sewed two of the sides to reinforce the openings of the pockets.

Then I punched a maple leaf with an Artoz punch
and used the negative as a stencil.
I used Distress inks with different autumn colours for the leaves.
The seam binding for the bow I coloured with Dylusions Ink Spray.

The backside has got the same leaves:

Gift Bag

I decorated a craft paper bag with this "Orchid" paper from Beccy.  Lace border punch: MS.

For the bow on the front I used a paper from Gi Kerr. The rose border on bottom of this side was found on Pinterest. On the back side of the gift bag there is an image from Beccy.

My First Bi-Fold Card

I have tried to do something that was unknown to me.

I made my first Bi-Fold card

after an inspiration from Mrs. A's Butterfly challenge.

It was so fun to make it.

But I did not find the right colours,

neither among my patterned card stocks

nor in my papers.

But I made a Bi-Fold card, I have a butterfly and I added a bow.

I used:

Two sided patterned card stock: Craft Sensations,

Pink card stock,

Cream paper.

(I hoped I could say it was banana, but I don't think I might.)

WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card die,

Lifestyle Doily Circle die,

Studio Light Butterfly die.

Stamp: Unbranded.

Pink ribbon for the bow,
Rhine stone, purple pen for the faux stitches.

Tools: Cuttlebug, Misty.

Four Tags In A Mini Box

I made a little gift for a friend of mine.

At first I only thought of giving her some tags,

but then I thought I could make a little box

for these mini cards.

My rather old fingers cannot make fine works,

so I struggled a bit with the box and the bows.

But I think I can bring my friend this little gift

when I see her tomorrow afternoon.

For the tags I used:

White card stock, 2 different whites.

Embossing folder: Swiss Dots, Cuttlebug.

Image: "Arum Lilies", from Beccy's "Lovely Lilies" set.

Light pink ribbon.

For the box I used:

Pink card stock,

Patterned paper: Craft Sensations.

Spellbinders Scalloped Circle (on the back side)
and Spellbinders heart die.
Stamp: Heyda.

Light pink ribbon.

Rhine stone.

I glued the little heart so that it can hold the upper part of the box.
