1. Cut a 5 1/2" x 12" piece of plain cardstock (I used white).
2. With a score-pal or a scorer of some type, score at 1", 2", 4", 6" and 9". The 9" piece is the top.
3. Fold top down, next piece up, alternating (see picture).
4. Cover the folded areas with decorative paper.
5. To make the little pocket for the message, cut a plain piece of cardstock 2 3/4" x 5 3/4".
6. Fold both long sides and one short side in 1/4" and glue on the folded areas. Place piece on second space from the top with the opening facing the right.
7. Cut another piece of plain card stock small enough to fit inside this pocket - about 2 1/4"x 5 1/2" and attach a small tab or ribbon (I used a pink ribbon) for a pulley. Insert this with your message inside the pocket you have made.
8. Decorate the folds with some hearts and other embellishments so they stick out a little over the top of each fold. Enjoy!!
Hugs, Judy
