envelope flip book

I had to make a flip book for one of my groups. I get a lot of handmade envelopes from this group and I love saving the backs of them, so I decided to use them for the base of the flip book.

I added a journaling card and a flower embellishment.

I covered the insides of the envelopes with patterned paper. The left side has a note. The right side has a paper bag with some tags in it and some lighthouse postage stamps on top.

The left side has a journaling card and the right side is the front of a card.

Left side has a mini envelope with goodies, the right side has a journaling card.

The Left side has some random paper and stickers, right side has some stuff that was on my desk.

Left side has a nice collage of stuff I found on my desk, right side is some stickers.

Left side is decorative paper, a piece of trim and a sticker, right side is a cute girl die cut.

Left side is some sticky notes, the right side has a pocket made from an envelope with some please deliver to labels.

I kinda wish I included more goodies.

Shabby Chic pouch

February 9th was a very productive day, craft wise.

First up, an Easter ATC:

Found a cute base, added some grass washi and some clear stickers I had put on white cardstock and fussy cut. I have no idea where my Easter stickers are, so I just raided some of my planner stickers.
Butterfly card:

We had to make a birthday card with a butterfly on it. I used a card base from Hobby Lobby, the butterflies were given to me in other swaps. The 'happy birthday' sentiment is a clear sticker on a white base attached with foam tape.
Shabby Chic pouch.

We had to alter a 4x6 or 5x7 pouch in a shabby chic theme. I basically just raided my trim stash, for this one I got to use thicker trims than I used on my stars for the new year. I also found this rosette/flower in my stash and added it.

The back and the front are about the same, I had to tweak the back a bit as a couple things in the front were small pieces. I also wanted the dangly bits on the front so you knew it was the front.
Bears:

I picked up a felt bear kit at Hobby Lobby and changed it a bit. The bows are from my stash, the gold ones from embellishment packs and the paper ones from a swap. I also added the picks, I got them at Hobby Lobby and layered some heart stickers on top of them.
Gift bags:

I put together some Valentine goody bags for friends. These bags are from a countdown to Valentine's Day swap, they had numbers on the hearts, so I just covered them and added the sparkly heart washi at the bottom.
Owl paper clips:

These were stickers from JoAnn's
Cards:

All but the one in the bottom left are journaling cards that I attached to paper and made cards with. I added a rosette to the top left, a couple stickers to the top right and another journaling card that I fussy cut to the bottom right. The bottom left was a notecard that I got with an ephemera pack on Etsy, I covered up a sentiment in the middle with a couple stickers and added some more stickers to the bottom.
I put the bears, the paper clips, the cards, a tea bag, and some chocolate in the gift bags and will be giving those out on Wednesday.

Valentine's Loaded pocket

I thought it might be easier for me to just make posts of what I make in any given day. It might get me to post more often instead of a bunch of posts at once.
I signed up for a Valentine's Loaded pocket in one of my groups, we had to make the pocket and a bunch of things to put inside it.
Here's my pocket:

I used some lip paper for the base of the pocket and slid some heart paper into it. I made a pocket on the front with some foam. I wrapped some trim around the edges because they looked not so nice. I put some red trim on the top with a vintage button.
Back:

I covered it with washi, added some lace to the bottom and a banner at the top.
The goodies. We had to choose 5 of the following to make and include: 2 ATCs, 2 AT coins, 3 paperclips, 3 embellishments, 2 rosettes,3 tags, 2 notecards, 2 charms or 2 hat pins.
I chose 3 paperclips:

The bows were embellishments I got in swaps. I made the banner one in the middle with a flag, and added some die cuts to it. The 4th I ended up not sending.
Embellishments:

The jar is a die cut with a punch of punches. The banner is a couple banner pieces with a sticker. The top one is a scalloped circle with some stickers and gems. The heart one is a die cut, a scrap of paper, some stickers, a chipboard frame and some really tiny heart gems.
Rosettes:

The rosette bases were given to me, I just added some hearts to the top of them.
Notecards:

Basically all I did was layer stuff.
ATCs:

Again layering.

ATCs

I also really enjoy making ATCs, when they come up in my groups, I basically just clean off my desk and use scraps from whatever's on my desk to make them.

 The scraps from the background are leftover from a pocket letter. I trimmed down the sticker at the bottom and layered some butterfly punches.

This one was supposed to have a bit more of a Valentine's Day vibe. Again, just a bunch of scraps from my desk.
