Charisma Cardz Challenge - Pocket Cards



Morning :) I'm back again today with another card.

Over at Charisma Cardz today we have a new challenge, where the theme this week is to make a 'Pocket Card' and we are sponsored by the brilliant Stamp Fairy (checkout my post below to see one of their cuties).

I have never made a pocket card before, but was surprised by how easy it was, so will definately make one again.  I used Hawaiian Flower Tilda, K&Co Papers, Pink Bazzill card and the flourish die is Memory Box.  The butterflies are Doo Hickey and the punch is Martha Stewart.  Its decorated inside and round the back too, and I just added some green gingham ribbon from Joanna Sheen and the rose is WOC.

I am entering this card in the following competitions:

Just Magnolia - Green
Totally Gorjuss - Spring
Papertake Weekly - Bingo - Gems, Die cuts, Flowers
Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes
Deep Ocean Challenge - Butterflies
7 Kids Challenge - Anything Goes
Penny Black & More - Spring (2nd Entry)

Crafters Companion - Spring.  I used Centura Pearl card for my die-cuts and punches (I love that card!) and also my CC Scoreboard for the folds.

Magnolialicious Highlights - Move and Groove - the insert tag pulls out

Thanks so much for checking out my blog, I hope everyone has a wonderful day  today:)

  39. Morning Alison, Well if you sold five I think that is good to be honest, especially for a small one, I always think as long as you enjoy it and are not out of pocket it is worth it. It is all about enjoying really but of course pennies come into it too. Enjoy your day, Judy x
