A very long time ago I purchased a pocket-themed stamp set from CTMH. I love the concept and haven't dared to part with the set even though I haven't used it all that frequently. I made this card for my mom's birthday back in September. Hope you like it!
The pocket is one I cut out of my son's infant-sized jeans. Every time he outgrew a pair I cut out the back pockets and have saved them ever since (he's now 7!) I always new I'd want to use it on a project - just didn't know what or when. lol
The card is a little bigger than an A2 but I don't recall the exact size - it's since been mailed and I didn't write it down. I do know, however, that it fits into a 5x7 envelope.
Here's a close-up of the flowers.
Supplies:
Stamps: CTMH, Beautiful Blooms (PTI), Fancy Flourishes (PTI)
Paper: Fine Linen, Vintage Cream, Hibiscus Burst, Pure Poppy polka dot (all PTI), pink gingham (Amuse), vintage text from old book
Ink: Pure Poppy, Hibiscus Burst, Sweet Blush (PTI)
Other: Beautiful Blooms dies (PTI), pearls, jeans pocket, heart punch (SU!), pop dots, impression plate (SU!)

Super cute. Love the idea of using real pockets. Too bad my kids are all grown up. I guess I'll have to snag some off my grandchildren's clothes.
This is just too cute. I wish you had told me about saving the pockets about 12 years ago. I'd have quite a stash.
This is ADORABLE!!
How fun is this. I love the book print flower.
