Dimensions for Easy Pocket Cards

I’ve included the dimensions for cutting and scoring these easy pocket cards above, but you can adapt it to be 4-1/4″ wide, or you can change the size of the flap.. totally up to you. I used the 4″ wide dimension so I could get 3 cards out of 1 piece of 12×12 Stampin’ Up! designer paper. See that tip in the video. The paper packs I used are listed at the bottom of this post. Simply click any product photo to shop with Patty Bennett in my online store.

Coloring Tip:

To create about 50 of these quickly, (yes, behind on customer Thank You cards again) I stamped the Gallery Blooms image in black ink then used my Blending Brush and an ink pad to add color to the flowers. I colored the leaves with Stampin’ Blends markers then die cut them.

A hand holds two handmade floral birthday cards.

Stampin’ Up! color combo

Below are the variety of Stampin’ Up! ink pads I used for adding color to the flowers so that they would coordinate with the floral designer paper.
