Laminated Planner Pocket

Have a friend that loves all things "planner"?

The project that I'm sharing today would make a wonderful

gift for any planner lover or someone just starting out!

This sweet planner pocket is a compilation of wonderful products from 

DCWV & XYRON

You can find the "DIY Project Pack: Mini Albums" online

The Stack is filled will all sorts of elements that can be cut out:

pockets, pages, tags, flags, tabs, pinwheels, icons and more!

After trimming out the large pocket, I ran the piece through the 

Xyron Creative Station

that held the Xyron 9" Lamination Refill Cartridge

As noted in the top photo, the NEW Xyron Creative Station has the 

capability of holding both 5" and 9" cartridges!

I trimmed away the laminate by using the edge of the pocket as a guide.

The sides and bottom of the pocket were then scored and folded.

Next, I used the Xyron Mega Runner to hold the sides together before machine stitching (I did this just to add texture & a whimsical flair).

After cutting out all of the elements, I made several of them into 'stickers' by

running them through the Xyron 3" Sticker Maker

and then trimming away the adhesive sheet.  

The front was embellished with a pocket that was stitched on, banners, owl motif

and the hand-assembled pinwheel...fun!

The inside of the pocket was generously filled with all of the components:

The paper stack includes vellum sheets as well!  

I created two pockets, labeled and filled them with goodies.

Twine was added to the tops of the different tags so they're ready to use!

By using the Xyron Laminate to cover the pocket, it will provide an even safer

environment for storing the pieces until they're ready to use.  

The recipient may decide to punch holes along one side of the pocket and

add it to their planner!  

Stop by the Xyron Facebook Page to see even more unique products in

our exchange with DCWV over the next couple of weeks...enjoy :)
