Flowerbug's step by step tutorial made it so easy to make! I'm sure I'll be making more soon!
This is the front of my bag. I used the SU Horizontal Slot punch to make two holes to thread my ribbon through both layers in the top portion of the bag.
I added the scallop border to the edges, and a scalloped medallion to front center.
This photo shows the backside of the bag with a card in the pocket. At the top I placed a snippet of ribbon and tied it on to the backside of the front ribbon with linen thread, then threaded the ends through the holes of a corduroy button and tied a bow. This just gives the backside a finishing touch as well. You could also add another bow to the backside.
Here is one of the cards I made to go into the pockets of the bag. Although both of my cards are alike, you could go all out and make two different cards! I believe this bag could hold more than two cards/envelopes as well.
Double Pocket Bag and Cards:
Stamps: Vintage LabelsPaper: SU DSP: Sweet Pea, PTI white, So Saffron, Pretty in Pink
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Misc: ribbon, rub ons, pearls, linen thread, corduroy button, dimensionals, scallop edge punch, scallop circle punch, 1" circle punch, horizontal slot punch
Off to stamp some more!
