Happy Thursday! Here's my card with this week's summer card camp colors, as well as the pocket technique from PTI's Make It Mondays video.
I used my Edger #2 die to create a pocket with Kraft cardstock. Then, I sewed up the sides with my sewing machine. I should have swiped the edges with Fresh Snow ink before sewing though! You can't see very well in the photo, but I stamped the rose from Year of Flowers: Collection onto the pocket with Antique Linen Distress ink (Ranger)
I cut "forever" with the Wonderful Word die into Pure Poppy cardstock which I had backed with scor-tape in order to adhere it easily. It wasn't so easy to get the cut word out, though. The rest of the sentiment was stamped onto the pocket with Rich Cocoa (Memento) ink.
The background of the card was stamped using WMS' Faux Fun, and heat embossed with clear Filigree embossing powder. The cardbase is Fine Linen cardstock, as well as Fine Linen satin ribbon. The tag was cut with Tag Sale #1.
Thanks for taking a look!
