What Is An Illusion Pocket?

Each pocket is a printable container with an open top, like a basket, box, bag, tin or stocking. Glue it to your page along the sides and bottom, leave the top open, and it becomes a real working pocket. Tuck the matching fussy cut pieces inside so they peek out over the edge, and it looks like the container is filled with tiny treasures.

How To Use

• Print the pages at home or at your local print shop
• Fussy cut the pockets and the small pieces
• Glue each pocket along the sides and bottom only, keeping the top open
• Slide the pieces inside so they peek out, and swap them anytime
