Step 1:
Score the right side of the 12" x 12" card stock at 1" and 11" on the Scor-Pal®

Step 2:
Crease folds and attach to the back side with Scor-Tape™.

Step 3:
Rotate the card stock 90 degrees, and on the right side, score at 2 1/2", 3 1/2", 8 1/2" and 9 1/2".

Step 4:

Turn the card stock over top to bottom and score between the previously scored lines, at 3" and 9".

Step 5:
Accordion fold on these three scored lines so the middle line is a mountain fold on the wrong side. Burnish with Scor-Tool.

Step 6:
Bring the two edges together to create a flat tube. They will just meet in the center. Tape them together with Scotch tape. Be careful not to tape the tube to the back side, just together.

Step 7
Place the long side of the tube on the Scor-Pal® to the top and left fence. Score at 4" & 6". You will be going through two layers so press firmly. (Diana - At the edges you will be going through 4 layers and you will not be able to make much of a score mark. Do not worry too much about this area, score a line as best you can. Pay attention to the middle part. The fold will take care of itself. I used a heavy 80lb textured cardstock and although it worked I would recommend using a smooth cardstock for your first try. My second textured one was perfect.)

Step 8
Turn the card stock, score between these two score lines at 5". Again pay attention to the middle part.

(Diana – At this point I found it easier to do the stamping I wanted on the front of my pouch. It was flat and I could get a good impression.)

Step 9
Accordion fold on these scored lines so the middle line is a mountain fold on the wrong side. Press first with fingers and then finally with Scor-Tool.

Step 10
Decorate the front of the pouch as desired.

Step 11
Place a 2" piece of Scor-Tape™ on the inside center to hold it together but do not go all the way across. It will hold more cards this way (10 max with envelopes).

Step 12
Make and decorate the cards & envelopes you would like to have in your caddy.

(Diana– Rita has used her Scor-pal for some awesome embossing techniques. Her cards are beautiful!!!. Below is another set and pouch she made).

A Buckeye born and raised, I'm from Painesville, which is on the far east side of Cleveland. I live with my best friend and buddy, Gabby, who is a wonderful beagle mix dog. She reminds me daily to play, have fun and most importantly get enough rest! She also brings me lots of laughter. Oh, I also have a cat and my woodland friends in the backyard who also bring me joy. Thumper and Gibson are my 2 grand-dogs who live with my wonderful daughter Kira, of whom I am very proud.

After being a high school math teacher for 31 years, I decided to retire and work with the other side of my brain. So, four years ago I said "goodbye" to teaching math and "hello" to using my creative side full time.
I discovered rubber stamping and paper crafting in 1997, but in 1999, I found a very new stamping company called The Angel Company. After learning more about the company and it's owner, I decided to become a demonstrator with them. I love their stamps, their papers, their
simple, smart, and sophisticated' style, and most importantly the people I have meet along the way. One of my greatest blessings has been the many friendships that have developed through the years with my customers, my down-line, fellow "angels", my on-line friends, and the staff of The Angel Company.
Now I take my love of teaching to a whole new group of people. I teach all kinds of stamping classes. I am known for my folding techniques and my handmade mini scrapbooks. But I am not limited to those. I love to learn new things and am constantly coming up with new ideas of how to tweak something I've seen or something I've made in the past.
