Are there instructions or a template for the pocket...

[scrapbookmommy]

cards? I think these are so cute but I'm not sure how you make them. TIA.

Look in Jenn Balcer's Gallery - she has put the directions on some of hers (and her pocket cards ROCK!). Hope that helps!

I'm still learning my way around. Can you tell me how to find someone's gallery?
Thanks,
Karen

To go directly to someone's gallery:
Blogs at Splitcoaststampers + /go/ + their exact username
That is:
Forums at Splitcoaststampersusername goes here

So, for jblacer's gallery do this:
Forums at Splitcoaststampers

If you do a search for "pocket" or "pocket template", you will find *many threads* with info and templates. Just in case you're not sure how to do a Search, here's a visual aid.



Here are some of my favourite templates from a few websites:

• Chia's Rubberstamp Art Templates
• jersgirls.com's templates
• Mirkwood Designs

Have fun!

Here's mamak's super easy instructions:


Cut cs 8.5 x 4.25.
Score at 5.5, 9, and cut at 10.25.

There's your pocket! Fold the 5.5 up and the 9 down. Secure sides however you like.

I'm confused, how can you score at 9 and 10.25, when the cs is only 8.5?
Help?

You took the words right out of my mouth. I was trying to picture this and I don't understand either.

Maybe if we search MamaK's posts, we'll be able to figure it out. :confused:

Could she mean cut the 8.5 side to 4.5?

[KateStamps]

She does mean cut the 8.5" side to 4.25. You cut the paper in 1/2 longwise, instead of across.

HTH!

I am such a dork!!! I meant 11 x 4.25!!!


So so sorry! Was supposed to be easy and instead was more complicated!
