Prototype library pocket/gift card holder

I wish I took a picture of this unfinished.  If I am not sure how something will turn out I will create it on whatever paper is laying around.

This WAS a prototype of the pocket card/gift card holder class I taught earlier this month.

I mean it was really plain with no embellishments or anything, just the guts!

Here is the one I taught in class.

  

 

You can see the resemblance. I was going to throw it away but decided it was still useable :o)

I added all the embellishments and handstitching

 
 Which one do you prefer?
