Happy September! I still can't believe it's already September! Today is noticeably cooler! Of course, I love fall weather. Bring it on!
I have been busy making Pocket Letters! I saw them on Pinterest and fell in love. It is a good place to use any scraps of paper and embellishments! I found the pockets in the section of Target that has baseball cards. The hanger is from Tim Holtz.
My niece had baby Rosalie recently and I wanted to send them something. In the middle section of the Letter are 2 pockets- on either side of the bling pocket. The picture below shows one opened. I did use magnets for the closure. You can click on any of the pictures to make them easier to see.
I couldn't make one for new baby, Rosalie, and not make one for her big sister, Amelia! Amelia loves the movie Frozen. So I thought I would make that the central idea for her Pocket Letter.
I did use Julie Nuttings paper doll stamp! I love these stamps and don't use them enough! This worked perfectly since it kinda reminds me of Amelia. I only made one pocket that opens on this Pocket Letter.
The back was something I printed off the computer. I can see making more of these Pocket Letters. I have been bunches of them on Pinterest. If you want more ideas- you should go over there and see the many different ones for all occasions that people have made. I am headed back into my Craft Room- more cards to make for more birthdays that are coming. I will share those soon!
Your pocket letters came out so great. I love how you used themes to tie everything together. The Frozen theme is perfect for Amelia. I am going to look at the back of my pocket letter that I am doing to try and get an image too. Thanks for the inspiration.
