Aren't these fun? They were ever so much faster and easier to make than the hand-embroidered variety I shared yesterday ... but they smell just as sweet! To make one or two of your own, just follow the simple steps below -
materials patterned paper (My Mind's Eye) + felt flowers and brads (Making Memories) + paper sachets by Kim Morgan, Gilbert AZ
1. Print the sachet pattern onto the back of your patterned paper. You can find it (along with several other fabulous card and envelope patterns) at this website.2. Cut out along the solid lines. Lightly score at the base of each petal (where the dotted lines fall, only do it on the front side of the paper).
3. Fold back each petal and, one at a time, run a line of glue along only the right edge, from the tip to the base.
4. Place approximately 1 tablespoon of potpourri in the center of the sachet (don't over-fill, potpourri needs room to breathe).
5. Fold in petals, working to the right. Tuck in the last petal and firmly press over the whole sachet to secure.
6. Decorate as desired (or leave just as is), and you're done!
these are just adorable! what a wonderful gift idea.

Hi. I'm a high school student and I, after looking at this project, really want to ask you if you could be my mentor for a school project. I'm trying to put together a whole arrangement of "how-to-do" simple crafts and thought you must be an expert on doing just that. Please write back soon...
