Valentine Magnolia Bookmark

This turned out to be a challenge for me. I've done paper weaving in the past, and thought the Woven Heart challenge by 365 cards (several months ago) wouldn't be that tough. I was wrong. I'm still not sure if I got it right but I did end up with a woven heart pocket to tuck a note, cash, or in this case a bookmark It's a miracle I didn't tear all the pieces with my fumblings. I might wait to see someone else do this in person (or at least video) before I try it again. Have you ever done this technique? Any helpful hints you can share?
