These pocket cards are quick to make because the Designer Series Paper does the work! They are perfect for tucking in a special note, a gift card or a small photo.
Change up the Designer Series Paper and you have an entirely different card.
A small card is tucked right into that corner pocket. Remove it and it opens like this.

How to make quick pocket cards
These are the supplies you will need.
The long strip of Designer Series Paper is folded in half and layered on the 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ piece of cardstock to form the little card.
Cut each of the square pieces from corner to the opposite corner like this.
Layer one of the Designer Series Paper triangles onto one of the white triangle and add to the card front, using adhesive only along the outside edges so it forms a pocket.
Tuck in the little card and you are finished.
Thank you so much for your tutorials and project sheets. Our 8-yo daughter has just started making cards and your blog and tutorials have become a much anticipated afternoon for us both as we watch and create cards for her to make some extra pocket money. We print and save each project sheet in a binder for easy access when she’s designing a new set of cards. We are both learning together so a big thank you from Australia!
Love these cards, so simple and beautiful.
Thank you so much Nancy Sue!
I am thrilled to hear you do this with your 8 year old daughter – what fun memories for both of you! Tell her I’m so glad she watches us! And lucky you!
I love these pocket cards, however, would you please tell me what stamp set the sentiment, just a note, comes from? I cannot find it in any of the catalogs. Thank you.
I love you guys you are so fun. Love hearing about your travels. Be safe
Thank you so much
Now I can’t even remember – I think it was one that retired with the last catalog so its not in the new one
