I tried this pouch with envelopes a couple times and could not get a look I liked, so I took the long hard road to get this done. I went the old fashioned way and made my envelope from retired dp. So much better.. A little bit longer to complete, but well worth the effort. Twinny's birthday was the 6th but since she is the guest hostess today, I made her a birthday bear pouch. I love these and they would make great little gift bags for teachers or students or workshops. The ribbons, eyelets and brads are from Pink Hedgehog Paper Crafts and the store can be found here at http://www.pinkhedgehogpapercrafts.com/ Check it out.. It is worth it

great job on this challenge. I love using the dp for a start out. I will have to try this again sometime this week but with dp next time. This turned out wonderful.
