What's Up Wednesday! 7/22/10: Grunge Paper Neck Pouch!



This is a fun and USEFUL pouch that I have made out of quilted fabric for years...now I've "updated" it into Tim Holtz Grunge Paper! This is a perfect way to carry your ID, a little cash or credit/debit cards at a crop, retreat or scrapping convention! Add color and decorate to suit your style.



Here are the dimensions to cut your Grunge Paper:



Have an awesome week!!

    I am heading to Club Scrap's Retreat in Oct. and am definitely going to make one of these to hold my essentials as well as some atc's for handing out to new friends!

    Absolutely cute cute cute! I have no grunge paper and nowhere close to buy some but I do have a lot of scraps of fabric. Any chance for the dimensions for the cloth one? Cheers Mary

    I love this!! I might try your fabric version. I have never seen the Tim Holtz "paper" at any of my local craft stops!:(
    I'll have to make a pretty paper one too just for fun! Thanks so much Laura.

    Laura, I didnt' have the grunge paper, so I made one out of cereal boxes and paper. It's a little too stiff, but I love how it turned out. Tomorrow I'm going to see if I can find grunge paper. If you'd like to check out my project go to my blog: http://shariscreationswiththecricut.blogspot.com/
    Thanks so much for the great video and idea, you are so talented. Shari (cricutrookie)

    I don't have access to grunge paper. Would fusable backed paper work? you know the stuff that gets ironed on the back of fabtic? I've used it with paper before. I want to make one for the Creating Keepsakes convention.
    Going next week! Can't wait!! I'll be sure to share your blog with everyone I meet!! Your ideas are so awesome!
    Thanks, Deann (d4dbaker)

    You are uber-talented, Laura! This is fabulous.

    They say every cloud has a silver lining. Look how many beautiful purses you've made since your purse was stolen! Bet that burglar never guessed what he'd started!

    Just got to get me some of that Grunge paper...

    I made one for a friend. I didn't have anything to make the bottom anything other than straight, but it's still turned out pretty cute. Thank you for the design. I finally posted it today, here's the link.
