Teacher Appreciation Gift

We are in the crunch to get teacher appreciation gifts done, why do I wait until the last minute lol. But  here is the first of three I need to get completed this weekend. The video tutorial is uploading and the link is below. All the measurements are listed. Have fun with this one I really did. Oh and I just used a dollar tree note pad to put inside, and it can be replaced when she uses this one up.

YouTube Tutorial: https://youtu.be/-0YfD-TKFQg

Cardstock 12"x9 1/2" inches, score on long side at 3", 3 1/2", 7 1/2", 8"
Fold and burnish score lines, then round the corners of the side nearest the 3" score line, this will be the outside flap.

If you are using magnets or elastic band then put these on now before you put the mats down.

Mats for front cover and inside of front cover are 9 1/4" x 2 3/4" round corners to match the cover base.

You will need 3 mats cut at 3 3/4"x9 1/4" these will be the other outside cover and the two inside middle and left side.

The middle pocket is cut at 5 1/2" x 3", score at 1/2", 3/4" on two short sides and one long side.
Mat for this is 2"x3 3/4"
Cut out the corner blocks and use score tape or a good adhesive to put these together to form your pocket as shown in the video.

The pockets on the left flap are cut at 5"x5" you will need (1), and Cut (2) at 4"x5" you will score at 1/2" on three sides. On the 4"x5" inch ones score on two short and one long side.

Mats for these are cut at 3 3/4" x 4 1/4" for the 5"x5" pocket and 3 3/4" x3 1/4" for the 4" x 5" pockets.

Mark down 1 1/2" from top and make a mark to place the top of your first pocket. Mat this one before putting the second pocket on. You will need to mat each pocket before placing the next pocket on.

For the second pocket measure down 3 3/4" and make a mark to start the top of the second pocket. Attach the third pocket to even with the bottom.

Let me know if you have any questions. If you watch the video and look at these measurements this will make more sense.

Let me know if you make these. We hope you will share on our Facebook group, click HERE to join,
