A2 Crimped Envie Pocket card

by: Pam Stang
Gather supplies making sure that you have a crimping tool and an A2 envelope, your stamps, punches, sponge and whatever else you want to use to decorate your card.

Take your A2 envelope and seal it.

Using your paper cutter, from the short end, cut off 1 ¼”…set aside…don’t discard.

Decorate the outside as you wish. I like to sponge the outside edges.

This is an important part. In order for the “lid” to fit, you need to crimp this piece as shown as it becomes a bit smaller with crimping. I like to crimp it both ways for the texture

Finish decorating the outside as you wish.

For the insert, cut your base piece to 4 x 4 ¼” and then layer more on top, if you’d like.

Here is the finished product. These are fun to stick in your neighbors mailboxes without being in another envlope. Have fun!

For this A2 Crimped Envie Pocket card I used the following stamps: Marsh Silhouettes, Just a Note and Daffodil Greetings.

Paper coastal cabana, vanilla A2 envelope, vanilla, crisp cantaloupe

Ink: baked brown sugar, coastal cabana, crisp cantaloupe, black

Accessories: button, ribbon, modern label punch, sponge, crimper
