First Monday Back…

It’s back to the craft room time!  I’ve been on a long hiatus – alot of travel and a minor kitchen renovation.  I’m so excited for a Monday off from work to have a fun day at all things creative.  But a short but whopper summer thunderstorm, technology issues – I’m assuming from power outage, Facebook Live (with it’s own set of tech & audio issues), and my first blog post after a long hiatus.  All that has left me out of sorts but I’m persevering and bringing in another First Aid Kit idea before I hit that fun ‘publish’ button.

 

First Aid Pouch & Card Combo

 

Facebook Live Take One uses ‘He’s the Man’ Designer Series Paper.

This project has a corresponding Facebook Live – click on the photo above.

 

Dimensions, Directions & Supplies list at bottom of post- keep reading!

 

First Aid Pouch & Card Combo

 

No stamping, all patterned paper and Cardstock!

When you click the card photo below it will take you out to see another project made with this Designer Series Paper Pack.  BBQ 3d Project Style

 

Tuck a matching card in!

 

This project comes together in less than 30 min!  Grab your supplies, watch either Facebook Live.

For Take One, click on first photo.  Beware, Take One is rather blurry and has some audio issues in the beginning.  I resolved the issue fast but mute your audio for the first 2 min or so!

 

Boo-Boo Pouch & Card for the Kids

 

Facebook Live Take Two features ‘Hues of Happiness’ Designer series Paper for a spunky kids version of this boo-boo /feel better pouch click the photo above to view that video.  I paired this fun paper with simple sentiments from the stamp set ‘Through it Together’ found on page 69 of the Annual Catalog.

 

Inside Fixed up

 

If you watched the Take-Two Video- I shared how to create this pouch with a couple of extras- it has a white divider on the inside as well as all the floral patterns that would normally show on this double sided paper are covered up.

 

Take Two peek through window.

 

 The Take-Two project video is an hour long as this was unpracticed and needed extra finessing to get the paper layers to cooperate:).  The other pouches – shown in Take One- really do only take about 30 minutes each and conserve paper- two pouches per sheet of DSP.

Here’s another sample using the same paper but using the floral pattern – you know,

because Adulting is Hard and sometimes just needs a bandaid!
