12 Days of Christmas 2023 blog hop with Melanie Hockin of Mel's Inky Fingers and Brenda Nelson of Stamps and Strechy Pants sharing Christmas crafting projects.

Welcome back to day 3 of the 12 Days of Christmas with Brenda Nelson – Stamps and Stretchy Pants and I! Today I am sharing a super easy fun fold using the Beary Christmas Memory & More products.

Day 3 of 12 Days of Christmas with Brenda Nelson from Stamps and Stretchy Pants and Melanie Hockin of Mel's Inky Fingers featuring a pocket card made with the Beary Christmas Memory & More cards, Simply Elegant Trim, Adhesive-Backed Glitter Sequins and Wink of Stella. Project designed by Melanie Hockin of Mel's Inky Fingers.

Every Christmas, I turn to the Memory & More products to create quick, easy and super cute cards! This year is no exception. The Beary Christmas Suite is absolutely adorable! I loved using the Memory & More Cards to create a ton of easy cards.

Creating the Pocket

Creating a pocket card could not be easier! For this card, I simply added a strip of Tear and Tape along the 2 sides perpendicular to the fold, to seal up 3 of the 4 edges. Then added a cute insert.

I used Wink of Stella to splatter sparkles over the front to look like snow. The sticker sheets included in the Memory & More Cards worked beautifully to create the adorable family of bears on the front, as well as the sentiment. After arranging these in place, I created the insert.

For the insert, I chose a large Memory & More card and trimmed it as needed to slide easily in and out of the pocket. The sentiment was fussy cut from a second card and layered onto the insert card. I save all the little scraps when creating with these cards. The little strips work well for layering, and other elements, like this pull tab. I stapled it in place, then tied a gold bow around it using Simply Elegant Trim.

To finish it off, I added some Glitter Sequins on the front for a little bling.

Thank You
