We have some sad news - This weeks will be Jannekes last challenge. She has been with us since the start of the blog and has always created wonderful cards/projects for us to admire over the year. We wish Janneke all the best in the future and hope that she will visit us and play along when she gets a chance.
Today, Janneke has issued our challenge - to make a DOUBLE POCKET BAG. Check out this tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers. I made two bookmarks and a gift card wallet to go inside the bag. Here is the tutorial for the wallet. I lamented the bookmarks, punched holes with crop-o-dile and tied on the two colours of raffia.My cute House Mouse image is called "Mice Star" starring Muzzy. I water coloured the image and matted it with burgundy and Kraft. Sewed edges. I cut out the bag, but before I glued it together I sewed on the DP and buttons. Assembled card. I braided two colours of raffia and attached to the bag.
