- Before gluing the sides together, cut a slit in the pocket front to create a closure. The flap simply tucks inside the slit. With the top flap closed, lightly mark the bottom pocket flap on each side where the top flap rests on it. When you make your cuts, don't extend them further than your marks. Open the pocket and place the bottom pocket flap out flat on your cutting mat. About 1 1/4"from the bottom, make two horizontal cuts as close together as possible across the flap, then carefully cut the sides of the slit and removed the thin strip from the slit. Now with the pocket flap in the closed position, mark on the inside side flaps through the slit with a sharp pencil. Trim away the portion of the inside side flaps that would cover the sides of the slit on the inside.
- Glue a 4 1/8"x3 1/4" piece of the red mini vines paper (from a red vines with pink and orange flowers sheet) to the inside. Glue the pocket flap to the side flaps. Cover the top flap with a floral section of the paper and trim the edges evenly. Make sure to glue the edges well.
- Glue a 3/8" strip of green mini flowers and vines cardstock across the pocket flap, about 1/4" from the bottom. Thread the green grid ribbon through the pink ribbon slide punch-out and attach over the green strip. Glue ribbon the in place. Write "photos" above the ribbon.
- Mat 3 3/4"x2 5/8" photos on green mini flowers and vines cardstock, leaving a thin border. Place matted photos inside the pocket. Tuck the flap inside the slit.
