Crafting on Saturday-Prayer Pocket Ministry

Hi ya'll. How's your day going?

Today I am sharing Prayer Pockets that I have ready to send to the Prayer Pocket Ministry.

For a group project this month Encouraging Women a FB group is adopting the ministry.

I used only scraps and leftovers from other projects.

The leaf and Pumpkins were a magazine page. I cut them out and glued on card stock. I layered three pieces together to make pockets to slip in Stickers and little cards for journaling.

Here's what is inside.

Totally scraps. I love making these. Just layered bits and pieces and glued at the top only. The little orange leaf is a piece of ribbon. The Smile little tag I actually got from Penny. She sends me printables she creates to make Prayer Pockets. I used a regular size that I made to layer it.

This pocket folds and has several places to tuck things.

The lace and ribbon is glued to a heart shape tag that was packaging in box of silk roses. I use all kinds of scraps and trash!

I used to have a stamp that was a roller. I sure miss it. It was cool. The black hearts were stamped on a bit of a book page.

I made a few extra things to stuff into pockets. And I will include journaling cards. I got a whole stack marked down at Tuesday morning.

Paper clips are fun and easy to decorate with fabric or ribbon

Text and stamped images layered on bits of paper. Already for tucking

The little green tuck is just a piece of card stock that I had stamped the Butterfly from. I added stickers to decorate it.

Not much goes into the trash!

Perfect for Journaling or writing Scripture on the back.

Wanna see what's in the box?

It is filled with little Fabric and Paper Snippets I have sewn or glued into clusters to use in Junk Journals or Prayer pockets . . .

Full of little treasures

This is a Fabric Snippet Roll

The idea is to sew lots of layers of lace and embellishments on layered fabric. I included a hot pink crocheted flower along with charms.

These are also small fabric snippets or clusters to decorate a journal

Also in the box are a few pieces I have made that I keep for examples. I love all the papers here. The Hexi shapes were white. I used water color to paint them yellow.
