Now it is time for a new tutorial, I gave myself a bit of a break over the holidays, but it is time to get back at it! I thought I would share how to create a confetti pocket.  I used mine as a background for a card, but small confetti pockets make really cute layout accents.

First decide on the size and shape of your pocket, then cut a piece of cardstock and a piece of vellum to size (note you could use two pieces of vellum of cardstock and acetate).

Now create your confetti with a hole punch, you could also add in some sequins.

Next I used little bulldog clips to hold the top and bottom piece together, with the confetti inside, while I was getting ready to stitch around them.

As you can see, i machine stitched around my pocket, however, hand stitching or even Washi tape will work great.

Here is a look at what I did with my pocket.  What will you be using your pocket for?
