Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- 3-3/4" x 5-1/4" of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper pattern of choice
- 1-1/4" x 3" from Basic White Cardstock
Pick out the largest die from the Countryside Corners Dies. Put it on top of the Countryside Inn Designer Paper on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine.
Pick out the die from the Countryside Corners Dies that cuts out a label that is 1-7/8" x 3-3/8". Put it on top of the designer paper cut out on one short edge on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it will cut a shallow notch in the one short edge. Run through the machine. Keep ALL the pieces.
Tip: If the designer paper you are using has a pattern that requires a certain orientation, then make sure you are cutting the end that will leave the pattern right side up when the designer paper is folded in half with the notch in front.
Tip: You might want to use Paper Snips Scissors to even off the top edges around the notch cut out as needed.
Lay the cut out designer paper piece on the Paper Trimmer horizontally. Score it in half at 2-1/2". Score again on either side of that score line at 2-3/8" and 2-5/8" to create a gusseted bottom for the pouch.
Fold the designer paper along the score lines so the center score line folds to form a valley and the two side score lines fold to form mountains.
Use small pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the sides of the folded designer paper to adhere them together to form a small pouch with a cut out notch in the front.
As you are ready to stamp using the Charming Sentiments Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the "just for you" sentiment from the Charming Sentiments Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Boho Blue Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white strip.
Adhere the little piece of designer paper left over when you cut out the notch for the pouch to the end of the stamped white strip so it is just to the right of the sentiment.
Tip: Adhere the designer paper scrap so the pattern from the inside of the pouch is face up.
Pick out the straight angles top tag die from the Tailor Made Tags Dies that cuts out a 2-1/4" long tag. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the sentiment and the hole in the top of the tag is on the left side. Run through the machine.
Cut a 5" piece of the Boho Blue jute from the 2023-2025 In Color Jute Trim.
Fold the jute in half. Poke the folded end of the jute through the hole in the top of the tag cut out. Pull it through a bit so you have a small loop of jute sticking out through the hole. Thread the loose ends of the jute through the loop and tighten the jute in place.
Adhere the tag cut out with jute attached to the front of the pouch as shown at a slight angle.
Cut a 3-1/2" piece of the Misty Moonlight 3/8" Inner Braid Ribbon.
Tie a half knot in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon knot to the front of the pouch at a slight angle as shown so it covers the top of the tag cut out.
