Beads for my team


Last minute as usual, I decided to make little pouches for the beads I’d bought for my team members who were going to the training session in Leeds last weekend. They are to add to the keyrings I gave them at our last team meeting (see below). 

They had to be simple due to time restraints and due to my lack of enthusiasm for making more than one of the same thing!

So this is just a length of cardstock, scored at thirds and a border punched at one end.  The section at the opposite end has a ¾” circle punched from it to reveal the bead in a little plastic bag beneath.  Should have taken a pic of the inside, I suppose. So, in theory, if you undo the ribbon and lift the top flap, you’ll see the bead through the hole.

I stamped Vintage Vogue on the top flap, folded it down and held it together with the ribbon. I added a monogram with Just Perfect Alphabet, which I mounted onto the largest flower from the Boho Blossoms punch. Done!

Stamps: Vintage Vogue, Just Perfect Alphabet
Cardstock: Elegant Eggplant, Baja Breeze, Very Vanilla
Ink: Elegant Eggplant
Accessories: ¼” Grosgrain Ribbon - Very Vanilla, ¾” circle punch, Boho Blossoms punch, Scallop Edge Punch
