the secret revealed

A bit of confession first:
There was this yummy charm pack of sunkissed I couldn't decide what to use for.

On the one hand, I love the fabrics. I wanted them the instant I saw them, and when I got them I would bring them out from time to time just to look at them. (Yes, I realize how silly it sounds).
On the other hand, the bright, bold colours (especially the pink) are way outside my comfort zone. I was afraid of using them in something I was unsure of and ending up with something I would not like so much.
And then:
I saw some lovely pouches and purses in the Pretty {little} Pouch Swap, and found this great tutorial .
And that was it. Here is the result:

(This tutorial helped me with the pocket.

Oh, and it looked like the Birthday Girl liked it :)
