a Faux Pocket challenge

faux-pocket-bench-diane-zechman.jpgOn Saturday a few friends came to stamp….we had a fun day!  I will share a few of the other projects we made another time.  But for now, here is a card I made for a challenge my friend Karen gave us.  A few posts back I shared a faux pocket card idea that she came up with.  This weekend when we got together, she brought the paper used to make this card and the piece of string.  We were challenged to make one of her Faux Pocket cards and we had to use the string somewhere on the card.  I chose to use the set Time For You and I tied the string around the little window opening on the front.  The flap that was folded down was also punched with two different Martha Stewart border punches.  And the tab was embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder- love that folder!
