I am back with another easy fun fold–a simple pocket card. Quick and easy yet adds a fun WOW to your cards! First, check out the short video showing you how I made the pocket, and then I will share all the details.
If you are reading this in your email, and the video does not show, just click on the post title to go to my blog to see the video.
Let’s take a closer look at the card…..
It’s just a simple pocket with an insert. It’s regular card size so will fit into a regular envelope for mailing.
- Whisper White: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ (for pocket)
- Whisper White: 5″ x 3 3/4″ (for insert)
- Melon Mambo: 4″ x 5 1/4″ (for insert)
- Pick a Pattern DSP: 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ + 3/4″ x 5 1/4″ (for pocket)
- DSP: 3/4″ x 4 3/4″ (for insert)
- Whisper White: 1 1/2″ Circle
- Melon Mambo: 1 3/4″ Circle
- Scraps: Whisper White, Melon Mambo, Lemon Lime Twist
- Score 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece at 4 1/4″ to fold into regular card size
- Score 1″ from top to fold down to create pocket open (see video)
- Scoring is simple when you use the SIMPLY SCORED SCORING TOOL! (if you don’t have this awesome tool, you NEED it)

Thanks so much for sharing this! I’m doing A Cuppa and A Card next Tuesday and we are going to make Breast Cancer Awareness cards. I am not charging for it and told them they could make as many cards as they want as long as they send them to friends and family to remind them to get a mammogram or to send it to someone going through treatment. This card is perfect for my ladies and they are so excited to be making cards for such an important cause. The Ribbon of Courage Stamp Bundle will gets lots of love!
I love this idea!!!!Thanks for sharing.
