A Pocket Letter


Today I'm sharing a Design Team Project Reveal based on the mood board for Off The Rails Scrapbooking.  It's also my Tuesday Tools, Tips and Techniques Challenge at Turtle Soup.

I stumbled across Pocket Letters on Pinterest and thought what an innovative idea!  Jeanette Lane was really thinking outside the box.  This is what the creator of the Pocket Letter has to say  -
“I created Pocket Letters as a new way to send letters to your new or existing penpals. Basically, you fill all the pockets of a 9 Pocket Trading Card Protector and send the whole page to someone who wants to swap with you. This can be a one-time exchange or you can keep exchanging Pocket Letters indefinitely. You fill the pockets with anything you like (stickers, tea bags, a note, washi tape samples, pictures, etc.) A short note or letter is included and tucked into one of the pockets. Then the Pocket Letter is folded up and sent in a standard 10 size envelope. It's the perfect way to send and collect letters from other Pocket Letter Pals (ie people who are sending mail in this format) around the world and a convenient way to store them. They fit perfectly in a binder!”

I don’t have penpals but wouldn’t this be a FUN swap or just an adorable way to send a friend some scrappy mail!? LOVE this idea!

(This Pocket Letter will be making it's way to one of my scrappy friends this week.)
 
 


 
Behind each card I put a little bag of crafting goodies.
(die cuts, feathers, tickets, pins, hangers, chipboard letters,
tags, journaling cards and some little envelopes, along with
a note from me)
