I've just finished making these little pockets, using my envelope punch board. I will give you this measurements at the bottom of this post. They were so much fun to make, and quick and easy! And a good way to use up small scraps of paper!
Each pocket has it's own tag which fits nicely into the pocket. I used double sided paper because I liked to have colour on the inside of the pockets as well as the outside.
I used white card for the tag inside because I wanted to stamp on it.
I added a small bow to each pocket once I had made it.
If you don't have any bows, you could leave the bow off. It was just that I had bows in the right size, so I thought I may as well use them.
I've used two different SU stamp sets to stamp the sentiments.
The stitched circles are some dies I got recently. The scalloped circle is a SU punch.
These were so much fun to make, and not difficult at all:-) Here's the measurements:
- Cut a piece of DSP at 5x5 inches.
- Using your envelope punch board, punch and score at 2 inches.
- Turn your DSP and punch and score at 3 inches.
- Turn the DSP again and punch and score at 2 inches.
- Turn the DSP again and just punch at 3 inches. Don't score this piece as it becomes the top of the pocket. But don't worry too much if you do score the last bit, it doesn't really matter too much.
- Fold the 2 sides and bottom in, leaving the top piece open. I used a large glue dot to hold the sides together, but double sided tape or glue will also work.
Below is the pocket you will end up with! The pocket measures about 5 1/2 inches in height, and almost 2 1/4 inches wide. Make a small tag to go inside the pocket. I used a small tag die which just fit perfectly into the pockets! Most of all...have FUN!!
Thanks for dropping by, have a SUNSHINE day! {HUGS} from me to YOU:-)
