True Friend

Class Project
I had a class recently and I used the True Friend set as one of my projects. It is a matchbook style where it opens in the bottom. The girls at the class really liked it, so I thought I'd share it with you. The panel background was stamped in So Saffron repeatedly.
The main panel I used markers for the flowers. The width of the bottom panel is 1", and the brads only goes through the front panel. I just used a sticky strip to the very bottom to hold the fold. I added the ribbon for the finishing touch.
