I used the smallest jeans pocket for the front of my card. It is the only one with the "rivet holes" in it. As I intended to put a gift card from Michaels inside the card, I thought that this DP from Cosmo Cricket would be appropriate for the background. It's called Material Girl -- note the scissors in the pattern.
And here's the inside of the card -- with the gift card. This is the middle-sized pocket, and it has room for the sentiment. They're a little hard to see, but there are piercing holes around the edge of the background paper -- to complement the pocket on the outside.
I hope you'd like to show off some of your new toys. If so, join us over on the CCEE Blog; and link your card up at the bottom of the post.

What a fun way to present a gift card!!! And, it doesn't get any better than Michael's for a crafter! I had to search for those scissors, but I found them....after finding a spool of thread...LOL!!!
What a wonderful dil to give you crafties. That pocket looks like so much fun and a great way to attach a gift card. Your scissor paper is so cute. Super birthday card, Lois!
Lois.....you are doing great things with this new 'toy'....love the variety of pockets and the possibilities....new dies to me
what a lovely and useful looking set of dies that is. Pocket cards are always fun, and denim is perfect fot them. Great sentiment to go with a gift card, too.
Do you know, I have that paper and I'd never noticed anything other than flowers in that particular design. At least, not consciously
