Oh Joy!

We're so happy to have Melissa Phillips back with us this month at Ally Scraps. The project she just sent over is super special, Melissa calls it Oh Joy embellishment pockets. I call it charming, oh so pretty and super cute!! Take a look.





Instructions:
1. Embellish three envelopes with rubons, paper, Peek A Boo transparency, stickers, and trim. Staple together on left edge to create a pocket book to store handmade cards, tags, and embellishments.
2. Using small white bags, create cards to fit down inside using decorative paper, stamps, stickers, and embellishments. Embellish the outside of each bag with rubons.
3. Create a tag using coordinating paper and embellishments.
4. Fill each pocket with 2-3 handmade cards and tags using coordinating paper scraps, rub ons, etc.
5. Fill another embellished bag with coordinating buttons and slip inside a pocket.
6. Wrap up coordinating Baker’s Twine, trim, and flowers and slip inside another embellished bag.
7. Attach trim along edges and near the top of each pocket to create more character and bulk.
8. Attach cardstock stickers and overlap with vintage buttons and rub ons to finish.
