These are my facebook live projects from last night – very merry and bright, aren’t they? Each is a meandering pocket card. I learned this card type from Krista Thomas of RegalStamping.com. Krista presented several versions of this card type on our Stampin’ Up! cruise – click here to see her cards.
The meandering part is the inner triple pocket on each of these. These pockets can be used for gift cards, notes, pictures, cash, etc.
The designer paper in these two projects is from the Dashing Along collection, available to Hostesses or Customers with an order of $250 or more this month. Let me know if I can create a group order for you and your friends so that you can receive this paper in a combined order! Individual orders can be shipped to different addresses.
The greetings are from the Merry Christmas to All Bundle.
The triple pocket insert is made from a single piece of 6″ x 10″ designer paper, scored at 3″ on the 6″ side and at quarter points (2 1/2″, 5″, and 7 1/2″) on the 10″ side. The resulting pockets measure 2 1/2″ x 3″. See the video below to see how to create the cuts and folds fo this meandering pocket.
I have also used two 1/2″ designer paper strips and two 3 3/4″ x 5″ Whisper White insert pieces on the inside of this card.
I enclosed a meandering pocket piece on the inside of this Cherry Cobbler wrap piece. Instead of securing the triple pocket inside of a flat fold, the Cherry Cobbler piece has a 3/8″ spine to allow more room for goodies in the insert piece.
The Cherry Cobbler piece measures 3 1/4″ x 9 1/2″, scored at 3 5/8″, 4″, 7 5/8″ and 8″. The designer paper pieces measure 1 3/8″ x 3 1/8″ and 3 1/2″ x 3 1/8″. The tag is from the Christmas Traditions Punch Box.
The pocket pieces are 3″ square on this version, allowing enough room for a tea bag, Ghirardelli chocolate and a gift card. The designer paper for the pockets starts as a 6″ x 12″ piece, scored at 3″ on the 6″ side, and at quarter points (3″, 6″, and 9″) on the 12″ side.
I made this version with the Joyous Noel designer paper collection and the Dashing Deer Bundle.
These are really fun, and slightly addictive!
