Hydrangea Heaven Double Pocket Card
For the card: Cut 10"x12" Hydrangea Heaven hydrangea cardstock and score it in half both directions. Place it vertically, with the pink side down. Cut on the left score line from the outer edge just to the center.
On the lower right corner, measure up on the right edge 5" and make a mark. Score from that mark down to the center score line along the bottom edge. Fold this triangular section upward and use 2-sided tape to secure the fold.
On the upper left corner, measure 3" toward the center along the top and along the left edge, marking both points. Score between the 3" marks, then fold this triangular section inward and secure it with tape.
Fold the upper left section inward on the center score line over the upper right section. Secure along the outer edges with tape, creating a pocket (see my tip above for making the pocket smaller, if desired). Fold the bottom half upward over the upper right section. Secure the left and right edges with tape to create a second pocket on top of the first. Fold the remaining left panel over the pockets to create the card front.
For the front: Cut 1½"x6" Hydrangea Heaven blue striped cardstock and mat the right long edge on Silver paper with a 1/8" border. Cut an 8" length of ¾" wide purple dotted sheer ribbon and tie a loose knot about 2½" from one end. Wrap the ribbon lengthwise over the cardstock strip with the knot 1¾" from the top, and glue the ends to the back. Glue the strip to the card front along the left edge.
Punch out the “thinking of you” die-cut and mat it on lavender cardstock with 1/8" borders. Mat it again on purple cardstock with 1/16" borders, then on Silver paper with very narrow borders. Foam tape it to the front in the lower right corner.
For the inside: Place border Dazzles™ near the upper edges of both pockets, trimming the excess. Cut out the “smile you are loved” cutout with narrow white edges and mat it on Silver paper with 1/8" borders. Mat it again on purple cardstock with 1/16" borders. Knot a 4" length of 1/8" wide purple grosgrain ribbon, then wrap it across the sentiment as shown and glue the ends to the back. Foam tape the sentiment as shown.
