DD #16 - Friends are like Pockets
Remember my
'Totally Tags' demo in July? This is the very last example that I have to share with you in that series. It was made using the latest challenge colours for
Dynamic Duos.
The
Black Tie Challenge this week is to use
River Rock and
Basic Black in your project with
Brads as a
Dessert Option.
My card was made from a sheet of paper from the Denim Bloc pack by Joy Crafts. The 'black denim jeans' were perfect for the option of adding brads (3 different SU ones used in this project).
The River Rock tags were made from textured card stock using the three sizes of tags from the Nestabilities dies from Spellbinders and stamped with the sentiment from Pocket Fun (SU-retired).
I used a craft knife to cut along the edges of the 'pockets' and placed a foam dot (dimensional) on the inside of both sides of the pocket, just below the opening to allow for easy access for the tags.
If you're interested, here's a link to another card that I made from the same pad of Denim Bloc papers -
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you can join us this week at Dynamic Duos.

Some News -
I've decided to have break from blogging for a while and this also means that I have stepped down as a Design Team Member with
Dynamic Duos and
Just Add Ink.
My love of card making hasn't diminished but work commitments have stepped up a notch with the need to spend more hours at home working on implementing the Australian Curriculum, changing the way I document my planning, evaluation and reporting. I teach at a small Independent Christian School and this whole process requires an audit of the curriculum that we currently use. It's a busy time but thankfully God has renewed my passion for teaching (I was almost at the point of 'chucking it all in') but instead I'm looking forward to working through this transitional phase.
On another note, it's almost Spring in Australia, a new season to look forward to and also the start of a new 'decade' for me as I turn 50 and celebrate this milestone with a holiday to Fiji with hubby.
I appreciate all those people that stop by my blog and leave some comment love, who keep on buying my tutorials (I feel so blessed) and send me lovely emails. Thank you. This isn't a goodbye ... as I know I will be back at some stage. So until then ... happy crafting!
