I made this birthday card for my lovely friend Gill. I sent it to her early as I would be away in Arizona on her actual birthday.
Well I should have known Gill can not resist opening packets, parcels etc, even though I wrote on the jiffy bag for her to keep it until today! Naughty, naughty!
I used some 12x12 papers and folded the bottom up inside to create a pocket. I used my sewing machine and stitched as much as I could.
I then filled the pockets with goodies, a small notebook attached to a tag and a glue bottle slipped into a tag, decorated with die cut flowers with gorgeous centres from Hobby House.
Up close for finer details:
Well Gill I hope you have a great day today and see you soon.

What a gorgeous card/gift for your friend - lucky lady. A great idea with stitching the paper it actually looks like a fabric wallet. You are a very clever lady. Love Em x

Beautiful card Julie. Love the flowers especially - very pretty paper.
I actually stopped by to ask if it is too late to ask if you could bring a pack of the 250 postcard size Digital Cardstock with you on Saturday?
