Yesterday I picked up stiff felt in PINK, GRAY, WHITE, and soft felt in brown paisley, tan paisley, and black crocodile. I decided to make my first Ladylike Card Holder using the Pink and brown paisley felt.
I cut out my pattern pieces and traced onto the colored felt. Then I used my hot glue gun to attach the Pink and Brown Paisley felt together. The rest is a matter of folding the felt correctly and securing the folds with hot glue. Adding a bow detail with ribbon is the cherry on top :) Such a very simple technique.
To download my Ladylike Business Card Holder Pattern simply join my bog and I will email you the two piece pattern I created for FREE!
See my step by step instructions below to construct...Enjoy!

Hot glue soft felt (brown) to back of stiff felt (pink) leaving flap exposed. |
