I have wanted to try a pocket card like this and was asked to make a card for a friend, so gave it a go. Most of it is die cuts (surprise!) I just love using them, can't help myself!
It's quite simple to create, I used the length of 12" x 4" this way it fits into c5 envelope when folded.
It is folded with a flap at the front. I only used small pieces of patterned paper to cover front & flap and a little on the insert... to allow room for writing message.
The back was a little trial & error but I'm quite pleased with result. It opens flat for posting and allows the card to stand at a slight angle.
This bear must be one of my favourites I find that I go for it quite a lot, it's just too cute. I cut and layered in different colours and even added a little patch & perforated down the front.
Thanks for looking and all your thoughtful comments!
Love that little bear! This is soooo cute!
ReplyDeleteKim I love it! As you know i'm really into cards that are a littl bit different and this idea is just inspired! Do you mind if I have a go? I like the way you've shown the back bit too,it's really helpful to see.

ReplyDeleteI like making wallet style cards but have never made my own supports for them. I wouldn't mind having a go at this one if you don't mind.
