Dream Until . . .
I took a class with Renee of "I came, I saw, I created" where we made the neatest Take Out Folder. I thought it was a great idea and was fun putting it together.
My son's girlfriend is going north to attend graduate school to pursue her dream/goal of playing violin professionally.
I thought this format would be a perfect way to send her off to her new home, albeit temporary.
I used a pocket folder and the measurements from Renee's post to cut my panels.
I added menus/information sheets from places near the university. There was also a space for me to add a personal note of encouragement.
Attached embossed pockets to the back section
to insert some encouraging scriptures to help when she feels lonely.
A few gift cards to the local merchants attached with washi tape ~love the {hugs and quiches}
A view of the back when closed up.
