It's been a busy week here. I've finished my 12 Days of Christmas and I am so excited to share it with all of you starting October 1st!! But mostly I am so glad to have a break from the Holiday Treasures DSP that is on every project...of course that was the idea *Ü*, and get to stamp with some of my other new Designer Series Papers like this one, Sweet Always. It's kind of busy for me, but it's NOT a Christmas project!!
Cardstock: Regal Rose, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Blush Blossom, More Mustard, Apricot Appeal and Certainly Celery. Sweet Always DSP
Stamp Sets: Flower Fancy and Best Yet
Ink Pads: Pumpkin Pie, Ruby Red, More Mustard, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip
Accessories: 1/4" Chocolate Chip Grosgrain, Fire Circle Brads, Tag Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals

Poor sweet Eric who is 7 years old now, decided to try a bladder infection for the first time. He's been pretty sick unfortunately but I've been taking good care of him. He spent 2 days in the hospital and was discharged with the same pink liquid bubblegum antibiotics my kids used to have. I don't know if he dislikes bubblegum, dislikes the swaddling George gives him so he doesn't claw me or maybe just me, but after taking his medicine pretty well for a week.... he's decided to develop this shaking of the head thing thing to get loose. I think the newness has worn off and he is just plain sick of this twice a day torture! Anyway, this is a hillarious picture. Poor kitty looks possessed!!! He eventually swallows it and I clean him up and love on him a bit before he gets let loose, don't worry. >^..^<

You'll need additional pieces of cardstock for the pocket, pocket flap and backpack flap.
Pocket is 3" x 2". Score at 1/4" and 1/2" on three sides. Cut corners off as shown above.
Pocket flap is 1 1/2" x 2". Score at 1/4" and 1/2" on one long side only.
Backpack flap is 2 15/16" x 2 1/2. Score at 1/2" on long side only. (Not to confuse you, but you could cut this piece 3" x 2 1/2" if it is easier, then cut a fraction of the edge off so it fits inside the backpack).
This little backpack is basically a 2,4,6,8 box with a flap and a little pocket added to the front. If knowing that is makes this project easier for you, it won't be so overwhelming. You know how easy a 2,4,6,8 box is, this one is 3, 1 3/4, 3, 1 3/4! You CAN make this!
This is the finished backpack. Now you can accessorize it anyway you want! enjoy!
