EDITED: sorry people, this is not the try a new technique (I will be trying that this weekend) but the project in the weekly SCS newsletter. Sign up to the newsletter if you haven't already.
I've wanted to do the "Try A New Technique" on Splitcoast Stampers for ages but just never got around to doing it. I really liked this weeks challenge (when I finally looked yesterday!) so I thought I will do this one. Woo hoo! Beate Johns has a fab tutorial on this trifold pocket card. Check it out HERE.
Beate covered the card insert but I have left it blank and just used my white gel pen for the stitching effect around the edge.
Here are my lovely Prima flowers. I also used the 5/8" certainly celery grosgrain ribbon. I think it is the first time I have used the ribbon and I love how it looks.
I got some money from my husband for my birthday along with a gift voucher for clothes (after losing 2 stone, my clothes don't fit anymore!) and guess what I will be buying? I feel a craft shopping spree coming on! I went out today with a friend of mine (hello Sally!) to a craft shop we haven't been to before but we have both bought online from. A bit of a hike to get there but they had quite a bit of stock. I'm sure I will go back but thank goodness for the internet.
Happy Crafting,
Gorgeous pocket card, Kylie. Love the flowers, the ribbon, the colour scheme and the photography is so goooood!
Belated birthday wishes too! I just worked out that I can leave comments if I use Firefox instead of Explorer :)
