[Ad] A lot of women love bags and they also have a thing for flowers. Why not combine these two passions in a cute DIY project? I'm kicking off the new year with a stylish seed storage idea. One of my new year's resolutions is to grow lovely flowers. Thus, I gathered my favorite flower seeds and created the cutest purse to keep the seeds. I used the charming Marigold Collection by Maggie Holmes. This collection comes with a lot of awesome floral designs--just perfect for today's papercrafting project. I used a cutfile to make the purse--you can find the details at the end of this post. Let's look at the project:
How to: I picked patterned papers from Marigold. Next, I made the most charming pockets to store the flower seeds. You can create paper pockets easily with the Pocket Punch Board by We R Memory Keepers. Just follow the instructions that come with the board. Once the paper is cut and scored, glue the paper with double-sided adhesive tape.
Next step: Cut blank pieces of white cardstock. And write down all the details about the seeds. I used a slick writer pen from American Crafts to jot down the following information: the name, the time when it's best to sew the seeds, and how much light they need.
After I had put the seeds into the handmade pockets, I used a cutfile to make the purse with my cutting machine. Look at all the adorable seed pockets and the stylish bag:
