Last of the MFT Projects

This is a project I was inspired to make after I saw Pine's card sending kit. I fell in love with the idea and had to try it for myself. Try not to look too close at the stitching - it's not too straight! This folder took two pieces of felt - I even sewed it with my Janome Sew Mini - I don't own a full size sewing machine. I stitched the Scarf for Three image to the front.

Inside there's room for cards and envelopes, stamps and return labels and a pen. I whipped this together really quickly - I think I will be giving some of these as gifts filled with cards.

This is the one image I haven't yet shown you - it's the newest Annie LaPoint image "Chives". I ran my Basic Grey patterned paper through my Cuttlebug with the Houndstooth folder and sanded the embossed areas. I distressed the edges and added some ribbon with my slot punch. I was trying to do something different with the ribbon and I'm not totally happy with the way it turned out.
Hope to see you tonight at the release party!
