Well, look at me uploading not one but two cards!!! Needed birthday cards for two teenaged nephews and figured they fit perfectly with the LSC challenge to make a masculine card...
Used a template (which I can't find in my upside-down stamping room right now to give credit). The paper is from an odd assortment of textured paper that I found at Costco a couple of years ago - it makes for a very realistic wallet... Actually used my sewing machine to stitch this one together!! Popped in a couple of credit card sized greetings and used a couple of thin magnets on the tab to hold it shut. Very easy and lots of fun to make...

Super wallet and great stitching. The paper does have a leather look. Awesome job! He will probably hope those are real credit cards in there.
A very cool gift!!

Yes, look at you go. I've been too chicken to try one of these wallet cards. You did a fabulous job. That textured paper is perfect and does look very real. Great stitching too. I love the extra touches with the credit card greetings. Glad I checked out your gallery tonight.

Well, would you look at this???? Heather is a technique guru now - I'm SO impressed. This is totally WAY COOL Heather!! It looks SO real and the stitching and magnet - OMG, you have really outdone yourself with this. Now, send it my way with some CASHOLA$$$ in it why don't you??? And, look at that fancy photography with the double image - You must have gotten really SMART over the summer. Just think that cold will be coming in soon and freezing your "SMART" brain and then you'll be back down here with the rest of us!!! LOL!! Great job my friend, but alas, I don't think I see the use of a single "punch"!!! OMG, is this a first???? LOL!!!
