Great job! I am a newbie and attempting to make this as a teacher gift to start the school year. I have not seen any with a pocket like this -- do you have a template -- and would you mind sharing??
TIA

Hmmm, let me see if I can explain. I think I measured my inside flap and then cut a piece of paper that was about 1/2 inch wider. I used my bone folder and scored it in 1/4 inch on each side and about 1/4 inch at the bottom. When all the sides were folded in, I placed double sided sticky tape to the fold parts and attached to the flap. Think along the lines of a true pocket on a pair of jeans, but with folded flaps, I figured what ever you put in the pocket wouldn't get caught in the tape. Also, my cover is just a single 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of CS. I tried someone elses template first and found this to much easier and doesn't waste as much CS. HTHT Let me know if it made sense!
