Step 1
I use a 28 lb. copy paper. It's a little heavier and slicker than normal copy paper and I love it for little bags and pockets. Cut the paper to 7 1/4" x 10 3/4". Turn horizontal and score at 4 1/4"
Step 2
Turn paper vertically and score.
Step 3
Gusset will be on the back layer. Cut off 1 1/2" on each side down to the 4 1/4" score.
Step 4
If you want to do some fancy stuff, do it now! I die cut a fancy edge on the top and cut a window in the front.
Step 5
Follow the directions in the photo to make the gussets. (No, it's not your imagination - that is different paper!)
Step 6
I glued in a piece of vellum to cover the window, folded the pocket on the 4 1/4" score and glued the front to the gussets. Using the back as a guide, I folded the top over the back.
