My portfolio finally came from printing (blurb.com) and I only had today to make a cover for it so I can turn it in to Woodbury University tomorrow! So I sat and thought of what I wanted.. crisp lines, white & pure, angular, yet delicate – almost a mix of contemporary with chic.
I got some white vinyl I had and started with a simple shape to fit the portfolio, then decided on an angle flap. After I finished sewing it all together I looked around for what I could add to make it chic, and found a few paper doilies I had from Rubies Diner. So I took one & sewed it on and then I sewed my title on top of that. Lastly I hole punched it and put in the snap closure.
I love it, it seems to describe my style perfectly and it matches the portfolio as well :)
It’s pretty simple to make one! Give it a try, and if you sew with vinyl or leather use some tissue paper on top as you sew to make even stitches. Let me know if you have any questions! :)

day 247 ~ Color Pencil Pouch
~sewing~
DESCRIPTION:
.color pencils.pouch.
INSPIRATION:
One of my closest friend’s birthday is coming up and I was thinking.. oh what do I make someone as creative as her.. SO I remembered the last gift she made for me was a beautiful color pencil drawing of me:

And so I thought I’d make her a color pencil pouch so she can take her color pencils around easier :]
day 239 ~ paper weave
~paper crafts~
DESCRIPTION:
.paper art.
INSPIRATION:
I’m not sure what got me to do this and I didn’t plan it ahead, it just kind of happened. It looks pretty cute if I do say so myself {better than these photos haha}
I basically ripped pages out of a book, fold them, and braided them together. Then I wrapped that string around it and did some origami flowers to finish the look.
