Anything but a Card for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge time again and Tracy has chosen a theme of

Anything But A Card.

I  made a Notebook and put it  inside a pocket.

This is for a raffle prize for my next Junk Journal class at the local Craft Shop.

I always give a prize and a small gift box like I do for my Craft Club ladies.

This is the finished item.

 I made the pocket from Kraft card and used some of the wrapping paper I bought in Alicante.  I added a vellum pocket at the bottom with a couple of butterflies.

This is the notebook.  

I decorated the front with ephemera from Luise Heinzl on Etsy.

I used coffee dyed and spritzed papers for the writing  pages and made a pocket on the inside and back covers.

I stitched the papers in and added butterflies to the remaining threads.

Inside the back cover I added a mini notebook too.

I had 4 ladies join me in the class in November and they all wanted another class  so we scheduled another for next week.

At this class I gave this notebook as a prize and Louise, the lady sat on the right, won it and she was made up with it.
