Note,Tea or Gift Card Pockets









Made a bunch of these easy to fold Note Pockets or often known as Tea Pockets or Favors. You'll find many on the internet often much more decorated and frequently a Craft Fair item.

I folded mine using 6" square paper. I used Recollections 'Holiday Tidings' 6x6 double sided paper pad.

Holiday Village Shops

A fun little ring bound photo album to create. Or if you prefer, you could use the backs of the tabs to write favorite holiday phrases or sentiments.

If interested, you can find this kit at My Porch Prints. Here is their easy to follow video tutorial . 

Sometimes I just prefer a simple cut and paste project...must take me back to my childhood when I spent hours doing just that; cutting and pasting! 

Below is my short flip thru video

Origami Book ~ 'Twas The Night Before Christmas

An old classic Christmas Poem creatively bound in an origami book.

'Twas The Night Before Christmas' was first published anonymously in 1823. And according to Wiki; "The poem has been called arguably the best-known verses ever written by an American and is largely responsible for some of the conception of Santa Claus from the mid-19th century to today."

The construction of the book pages start by folding 4 inch square size papers and you end up with an adorable little book 2 inches square. A sweet 'freebie' project offered by My Porch Prints here.

Don't recall the particular scrapbook paper pad I used as the base, but there are lots of tabs, tags, pockets clips and stickers throughout. Tab binding method using TH linen holiday tape. I incorporated many tea-stained notepads creating plenty of pages for journaling and list making.

This little chunky journal measures 5"W x 6.5"H x 1.5" thick.
