Surprise for the inside!
Step 1
Step 1
Take a piece of cardstock that measures 9.84 inch x 9.65 inch
Step 2
Score the cardstock at 4.72 x 4.92inch
Step 3 Take another piece of cardstock and measure 6.3 x 3.35inch.
You need to score all four sides at 0.39 x 0.59inch. (See picture)
Step 4
When you have scored the lines you’ll cut
the corners. I have marked the lines that
you’ll have to cut.
Step 5
Then, fold the corners so you will get a pocked. Glue it together.
Step 6
You can decorate your pocket now. I have
punched a hole in the middle. Glue it on
your card which you have made in Steps 1 and 2.
I have put some chocolates in the little pocket
and used Quickutz / Lifestyle Crafts (4x8) Sketchbook Alphabet for Happy Mother’s Day.
