Cool way to fold a 6 pocket paper book

February 2, 2018 by Stefanie Girard

This DIY project would be an adorable and thoughtful gift for Valentine’s Day. Using heart-themed paper to create the envelopes will give the project an extra special touch. Whether you’re a seasoned scrapbooker or a beginner, the possibilities are endless when it comes to customizing this project to suit your own style.

You could fill the envelopes with all sorts of goodies for a scrapbooker or planner addict. Some ideas include stickers, washi tape, stamps, die cuts, or even small embellishments. You could also include handwritten notes or special memories to make the gift even more personal. 

This project is not only fun to make but also an inexpensive way to create a meaningful and thoughtful gift for someone special. Whether you’re looking for a DIY gift for a friend, a family member, or a significant other, this project is sure to be a hit.

This is so cute and I bet would be fun to make for Valentine’s Day out of pretty heart themed papers like these.

Pop on over to the blog Crafty Journal for the step by step tutorial on how to fold 6 pockets from a single sheet of paper.

    What a cool idea! I have two little grandkids on the other side of the country that I’m trying to stay in touch with so tucking notes into these pockets would make a delivery from Grandma so much more fun to get than just a plain letter. Thanks for the great idea.
