ATC Holder

Yesterdays peek was the front cover of an ATC holder

I wanted to try something new and found this holder.

I decided to have a go at one and this is what I came up with for Ali at Crafty Ribbons as she has received some gorgeous Christmas ATC'S!















The tag punch allowed me to see a larger area of the ATC than if I just used an envelope with the closing flap removed, you could try nesties, sisix dies ...
I stitched the enveloped to the front cover - you can add more pages easiily by cutting the beading thread and re-stitching you could use thin ribbon, embroidery thread.....

I've made anoother for Caz - when she's got it I'll reveal it to you :')

Ingredients
3X white envelopes
3" tag punch
Brayer
Colourbox inks
Sissix stamps
Ribbons - Crafty Ribbons
Pokey tool
Clear beading thread
Hammered cardstock from stash
