Honey Pot Pet Tutorial::: Business Card Holders


Hello hello sweet readers. We are the ladies from Honey Pot! You will find unique, adorable and practical pet items from all over the world there. We also blog about our favorite items, tips on training pets, and pet food recipes!

We are thrilled to be guest posting on Yellow Bird, Yellow Beard today! It's been a while since we last did a tutorial... actually this will be our first tutorial of 2012! EEK. Easy peasy, and extra cute business card holders. No sewing machine needed!




What you need :

1 sheet of 9 in x 12 in peel & stick felt
1 sheet of 9 in x 12 inch felt
scissors
embellishments {optional}
needle & thread {optional}
hot glue gun {optional}

Let's start!


Your peel & stick felt looks like the above picture - front & back.



Lay out a business card {for size purposes} on your regular felt, and add about a 
half an inch to each side. Cut two pieces.



Perfect!



Lay out the two pieces of your cut out felt {for size purposes} on your peel & stick felt, and add about an inch to each side. Cut two pieces.



Now peel off the paper.



And stick your purple regular felt onto the sticky part like so. This stuff is super sticky!



This is the optional part... If you would like to add any embellishments, this is the time to do so. 
We cut out a white little flower and two green leaves. Using a needle and thread, I positioned 
and secured the little piece on the bottom left corner.



Now stick the two pieces together, and press together. If you would like to secure the bind even stronger, you can sew around the edges {optional}.



We glue gunned a little diamond in the center of the flower {optional}.



And there you have it! Your very own, DIY business card holder that you can carry around 
in your purse everywhere you go.
