This is one of my favorite die cuts. I just love this pocket for anything western or for guys of all ages. First I adhere the denim material/paper to a heavy cardstock, leaving a space to insert the red stamped material for the handkerchief. Using a bone folder, score and fold. Placing the fold just inside of the dies left side cutting blade, I proceed to cut out the outside of this mini album, then insert the handkerchief. I usually cut two more folded pages, sightly trim these pages to be a tad smaller to insert into the album using a liquid glue from Beacon Adhesives to hold the pages. I complete the outside using a gel pen to put the stitching along the pocket. I cut off the tabs of a brad and glue onto the corners. You could also use eyelets on the material prior to adhering to the cardstock.
This pocket makes a great party invitation, dance card, or menu. Having a western themed wedding ... use as a 'save the date' announcement.
Hope you enjoy this idea.
