Crafts by Cami C: Pocket card variation (with tutorial)

Today I have another version of the pocket card to share with you. This one has a fold down flap in the front instead of the curved front I shared a couple of days ago and it's even easier to make!

To start with, you'll need a piece of paper (double sided patterned works well) 8 1/2" x 5 3/4".

Turn the paper horizontally and using a scoring board, score down at 3/8" and 4 1/2" .

Then turn the paper vertically and score at 5/8".

Next you'll score at 5" just down to the line you made at 4 1/2" horizontally. (This will create the fold down flap in the front).

Then you'll cut off the tiny top corner where two flaps meet, the tiny bottom corner where two flaps meet, and the portion on the right bottom side where the 4 1/2" score line and 5/8" score line meet. Cut down the 4 1/2" line just until you meet the top horizontal line. That will create your fold down flap for the front. Here's what it should look like when you've done all these steps (the last one isn't visible in the picture):

Next you'll use a corner rounder and round all the corners (flaps included) except the bottom right corner. You'll need to fold your flaps in to get to various corners to use your corner rounder. I left the front flap folded downward. It will look like this:

Next you're ready to assemble the pocket with adhesive. I used scor-tape. You could use sticky strip or whatever you prefer, but I tried the snail adhesive previously and it wasn't strong enough to hold the flaps closed. You can either have the flaps hidden or showing. I preferred hidden, like this:

Here is the front of the pocket, ready to decorate

The tag is simple- just a piece of cardstock 3 3/4" x 5" with the corners rounded. I used a 1 1/2" circle and 1" circle of plain or patterned paper for where the ribbon goes through. I scored each of them down the middle, put adhesive on the back and centered them on the tag. Then I hole-punched through and added my ribbon. For this one I used two solid papers:
