Hello Crafty Peeps!
Thanks for hanging out with me tonight! I absolutely love the project that I shared tonight. This little thing can be used as a card with several notes inside, hold gift cards, add pictures, store or mail ephemera/happy mail to a friend, send flat-ish treats (paper or candy) to a someone, tea bags, drink mixes, lots of things! Finished size is 4" x 6", and we make the base using an entire sheet of 12" x 12" designer series paper.
Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET. I am streaming to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously.
If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube. If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it on YouTube.
There are only (4) score marks that you need to make, and (1) cut. Here's a picture of the pattern that I drew out -
The 2" flaps fold up to make pockets, and then the middle area gets glued together to make the 5th pocket.
I cut (4) pieces of different color cardstock 3 3/4" x 5", for the inserts. You can journal on these, add pictures to both/one side, doll them up in any way you want.
Notice that I cut the very middle out - at the center fold. That helps the pockets lay flat. If you do not cut it (like I did in my prototype), all that paper at the seam doesn't have anywhere to go. It wrinkles and buckles.
This picture shows the booklet that I put in the center pocket. It's 3 1/4" x 11" piece of Crumb Cake, scored at 5 1/2".
Let's look at the cover again, so you can see closer. Tie the Pale Papaya Open Weave ribbon around the mini book first, secure with some tape/glue.
Then I cut the corner flower bunch out of one of the sheets of Abigail Rose dsp. Color in with various Stampin' Blends markers. Color over all of the flowers with Clear Wink of Stella.
Stamp the greeting on Very Vanilla, and punch out with the Lasting Label punch. Punch is popped up.
Finished off with several of the Petal Pink gems from the Elegant Faceted Gems pack.
