For the latest PTI Make it Monday challenge, Lexi Daly showed non-engineering me and other talented crafters how to make envelope bags with pattern paper. After two failed attempts with PTI pattern papers where I scored folding lines too heavily and cracked one corner or the other, I surrendered and used a pink Hallmark envelope from the drawer. Of course, in decorating the handmade bag, I didn't count on the tag's heaviness making it impossible to stand without a lining of rocks! LOL. Live and learn and that's what it's all about, right?
