A Little Forward Planning....





I had a play with my some of my December Daily goodies that I have stashed away.

Among the bundle of goodies were some Teresa Collins Memorabilia file folders and a folded tag pocket, so decided to decorate the front of the tag pocket.  Because Asher's birthday is on the 17th December it will be a busy day with lots of photos,  a little forward planning  is a good idea.


Here is the 'before' photo



I unfolded the pocket so that a small slit could be made down one side of the closed pocket to make a tie.






Once tied, it was time to bring out some paper and embellies.





I had a sheet of Kaisercraft 'Take Note' 3x2 panels with some of the Teresa Collins Memorabilia papers as the colours were a good match for each other.





Using one of these panels as a base,  teamed with Memorabilia and 'Take Note' die cuts as well, a '13' was punched from a sheet of Heidi Swap Feuilles Hojas numbers paper to decorate my tag pocket.




Still felt like it needed a little something down the bottom so added in another die cut, the  'happy', from a set of Heidi Swap Feuilles Hojas words and alohas from my stash to finish it off.



I'll share this again once I've decided just how I'm going to add it into this years December Daily.
