Pocket Cards

Charisma Cardz Challenge theme for this week is Pocket cards. There is always a need for pocket cards in my family as more often than not, we give gift cards. It is really hard to buy for most of my family, but if we know where they like to shop, then a gift card makes perfect sense.

For this card I used Bo Bunny's Timepiece collection 6x6 pad. The pocket die is from MFT and the sentiment is Penny Black. The star is die cut (Sizzix) from a scrap of a Starbuck's sleeve (from my niece)  leftover from making Christmas gift card holders. I used the Tim Holtz paper distresser on the striped paper and then distressed the edges with TH Walnut Stain distress ink.

I am also entering my card in the Moxie Fab World - 'The don't throw it away' challenge (for the scrap of Starbuck's sleeve).
