Welcome to week 8 of Heart of Christmas blog hop. Are you getting inspired by the different idea you are seeing each week?
This week, I am hosting the blog hop for Claire and have links to all ladies participating after my card. Be sure to scroll down and stop by and see what everyone is sharing this week.
I have a pocket card to share this week. Perfect for stashing money, tattslotto tickets, scratchies or even photos.
To make your own pocket card, use the envelope punch board and make an envelope to suit a 10.5cm x 14.8cm card (4 1/2" x 5 1/2") and cut off the top flap. Using a 23cm (9") x 5cm (2") strip of merry merlot cardstock, punch both ends in the scallop tag topper punch. Score one side of the cardstock at 8cm (3 1/8") and wrap around the envelope until you reach the other side of the envelope and wrap the remaining cardstock around the front of the card. Adhere in place and tie together using white bakers twine.
Optional: Adhere a card behind the pocket to allow the card to stand up.

Love it Ros, that's one of the nicest pocket cards I've seen!

Ros, this is a great idea, especially for a masculine gift and the optional card at the back to help make it stand is another great idea. I love this!

Nice Card Ros, I do like these cards as they are very handy when adding gift cards of Cross Lotto tickets. I always make a stand for mine as well, as I hate cards that can't stand on their own.

Such a fabulous card Ros, I really love how it's all come together and it's so functional. Thanks for hosting this week so I could have a break.

Fabulous card, Ros. Love the idea of attaching the pocket to a card base.
