Kraft in Color: Sweet Life Pocket Organizer by Shellye

Hello, Doodlebugs!  Shellye along with you today;  I have an easy Pocket Organizer that can hold your monthly memories, milestones, birthdays, etc.  All you will need is a variety of the new Treat Bags, a couple of sheets of your favorite 12x12 papers and fun embellishments!

 To begin, cut a strip of 12x12 paper to 3.25"W x 12".  Score the strip in 1/2" increments and then fold accordion style.

Select 12 Treat Bags and apply a high-tack adhesive to both sides of the accordion folds.  Next, attach the pockets to the folds and press the adhesive in place to secure.

Embellish the front pocket as desired.

For the tags, you will need two sheets of 12x12 paper;  I've used the Kraft in Color "Cupcake Flower/Ledger" paper and cut into strips to measure 2.75"W x 5"H.  Corner round the edges of the tags if you'd like.

I've used a punch to create the tabs, along with Teensy Type Cardstock Stickers to mark each one with a designated month.

I love that the organizer is sturdy enough to stand up easily.  These go together so quickly and would make a sweet little gift for your friends!

Thanks for visiting us today at Doodlebug Design!
