Pocket Card

Sometimes you need to change the style of card you are making. To make a pocket card you do the following:

1. Cut a piece of card stock lengthwise at 4 1/4". You still get 2 cards from an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of card stock.
2. Score the card stock at 5 1/2" and 1 1/4".
3. Fold at your score marks having the flap on the outside.
4. Apply sticky tape to the inside edges of the front of the card up to the crease of the flap.
5. Add your decorations to the front of the card. I used Designer Series Paper, corduroy button, and punches on mine.
6. For the inside part of the card, cut a piece of card stock 3 1/4" x 5". Add decoration and greeting.

The pocket card can also be used for holding a gift card.
