Man's Blue Jeans Pocket Card !


HI !
I made this card awhile ago, but often get inquiries as to how it was made. I created a pocket template on my own. Of course there's a lot of stamps out there that you can use to create this pocket. The "stitches " on the pocket are hand-drawn. The "red" tag ( which is normally the jean maket name ) Can say anything you want, Grandpa's Wear, Dad's Day, etc.....I also have a card made with soft suede cardstock as well....made to look like a CARHART pair of jeans
ITEMS used to make this card :
Word Window Punch
Brads
Stampin Up! Write Marker ( Night of Navy )

HAVE FUN CREATING THIS AWESOME MASCULINE CARD FOR SOMEONE IN YOUR LIFE !
