All About Me Pocket Letter Swap

Hello my crafty friends!

Today I have a pocket letter themed, 
"All About Me" created for a swap.


Here are my 9 pocket themes in the All About Me pocket letter:
1) Avid Reader
2) Love to go camping with the entire family
3) Riding my bicycle is one of my favorite things to do. It's so relaxing!

4) I use my Cricut and other die cutting machines with my crafting hobby
5) I'm a Grandma to 5 boys!!
6) We have a little baby kitty that's black with white feet named Dani Rojas

7) I enjoy playing the piano
8) We love sitting on the front porch, especially during heavy rainstorms
9) I'm an avid scrapbooker

Each pocket has my favorite colors as the solid backgrounds which is purple and turquoise.

All images print 'n' cut with Cricut
lots of pattern paper, buttons, gems, pearls, sequins, and die cuts from punches

Never underestimate the power 
of the hand written word in a card or letter.

Hello my crafty friends!


July 4th (Red, White & Blue) Pocket Letter
(created for a swap)
Carta Bella pattern papers
Cricut used for all die cuts and print n cuts
Flowers, stickers, buttons, twine, sequins, sentiments

I'm really enjoying creating more Pocket Letters again. I haven't done these in a while. The Facebook groups for swapping Pocket Letters are so fun and encouraging! If you are in one, leave a comment below so I can check out the group.

Again, since I was creating one for a swap,  I went ahead and created 2 alike so that I can have one for reference or to use in the need of a quick pre-made pocket letter for another swap.

Pet Themed Mini Pocket Letter

Hello my crafty friends!


Today I have a simple project to share with you!
This is a Mini Pocket Letter with a Pet theme for a swap I'm in. The back of the pockets have a few goodies in them like ribbon, buttons, flowers, stickers, and mini bows.

While I had all of my supplies out, I went ahead and made 2 of these exactly alike. One to mail for the swap, and one for future reference or in case I need a mini pocket letter in a hurry.

I love the cat theme!

I used my Cricut to print and cut out all of the designs.
gems
wood painted buttons, enamel buttons
