Paper Bag Pocket of Encouragement

Hello Friends! Esther here, and today sharing a Paper Bag Pocket of Encouragement. It's stuffed full of Bible verses, hymns, and inspirational sayings to cheer and encourage.

Here's how I created my pocket

(Maybe you'll see a pink and white polka-dot / denim version later this year!!) 

1. Start with a lunch sack
2. Fold the top down and glue in place
3. Punch or die cut a partial circle in the center of the bottom flap
4. Use decorative scissors along the top of the bottom flap
5. Fold bottom flap up
6. Cut designer paper to decorate your panels
