Just a Hint of Fall for Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop: Paper Bag Pocket
Hello, Ribbon Lovers! We are nearly half way through the month of August and Fall is peeping around the corner. It’s time to break out the Really Reasonable Ribbon Club Colors of Autumn Assortment in our monthly RRR BLog Hop. You should be coming here from Karen’s lovely blog. If so, you are right on track. Without further ado, here’s just a hint of fall in a sweet little paper bag pocket.
October Afternoon’s Apple Cider collection makes a perfect playmate for the Colors of Autumn Ribbon Club Assortment. I just love seeing all these cute fall images inside my paper bag pocket!
I worked with Square in a Square Tangerine Satin, Turftan Brown Delicate Stitched Satin, Autumn Bold Diagonal Stripe Ribbon, and Tangerine Checkerboard Satin Ribbon.
Making a paper bag pockets is quick and easy. Start with a brown paper lunch bag, fold it up to make three little pockets, line the pockets with designer paper and stitch up the sides. Then stuff to the gills with all kinds of goodies!
Cute Little Paper Clip Embellies
Look at these super cute paper clip embellishments! I made them by punching out 2 half inch circles for each clip. Hot glue was added to the center of one circle and then it was placed on the backside of the paper clip. The other circle was pressed into the hot glue from the front side of the clip, making a neat platform for these adorable puffy stickers that came with the Apple Cider collection. They add a festive feel to the paper bag pocket, don’t you think? I’m sure I’ll be making more of these!
From here, you will hop on over and see what kind of fun Deborah has in store for you. Visit all the blogs on the hop, leave a nice comment and then hop on over to the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog to answer Bonnie’s question of the month. Then you’ll be entered into a drawing to win your very own Colors of Autumn Ribbon Club Assortment so you can add just a hint of fall to your projects!
Thanks for stopping by! Now go get your craft on!
Cheerio,
kathy

Oh Kathy what a sweet and lovely fall project. You are right in saying the paper collection goes perfectly with the ribbons you chose from this month’s collection. I love the idea of making a pocket book and surprising a friend with a pack full of fun little goodies. So unexpected but I’m sure appreciated on a crisp Fall day! Your homemade embellies are adorable very clever. Well done tfs.
This is chock full of goodness! Love it 🙂

What a great idea!! I like all the wonderful little tags, teas and other items you used to fill this wonderful paper bag. Also like how you used this months ribbons for your project. Just splendid.
Kathy you come up with the neatest projects! Love this one and will give it a try. Also you always seem to have the neatest designer paper too! I am afraid I need some new papers as I am not liking most of the paper I have any more. It must be at least ten years old now! Yikes!
