The cards have a little pocket on the front to hold a Ghirardelli Chocolate Square and some shredded paper.

So incredibly cute! A perfect use for the cupcake punch. And your choices for paper, ribbon, etc., weren't bad either.

Thanks for the pocket measurements. I just tried it and they work wonderfully. I bought some of the tea bags for Valentines I saw in the grocery store. One of each fit in there just fine. Now, to find a little cup stamp in my collection for the "O" maybe! I guess not everyone would start with the pocket and then design the card! Anyway, thanks for sharing the design and all! Hugs!
