Discover the joy of creating fun filled pocket cards with clear hobby rubber stamps. A pocket card is simply a greeting card with a pocket constructed into it. As such, the card offers a variety of surprises such as puppets, hidden messages or even photos. Pocket cards also offer a creative way of giving gift cards, tickets, or other small items. Decorated with clear hobby rubber stamps, these cards are easy to personalize with your special taste and creativity.

This card features stick puppets which not only add to the card design, can also become a fun game children can play after opening their card. It is easy to theme a pocket card along a story theme such as the Little Red Hen or a song theme such as Old MacDonalds Farm. This pocket card in a sense becomes part of the gift and is a delight to give and receive.

This offset pocket card idea allows you to design a recurring sentiment in the background of the card. This rubber stamping technique uses first and second generation stamping images (meaning you stamp twice before re-inking the clear stamp). The second impression is offset just a little creating a shadow for the words. The pocket is enhanced with a fun ribbon and inside the pocket hides a delicate bouquet of flowers.

Stamps used in this design include:

• Live Well Clear Stamps
