CUTE & CRAFTY POCKET LETTER | with Wanda

Hi everyone! Have you ever made a Pocket Letter? It's one of my favorite projects to make and send - especially to my crafty pals! And, it's a great way to use lots of pretty elements from a paper collection! Today I used the awesome Cute and Crafty Collection to make a happy, colorful Pocket Letter! There are a million different ways to decorate and embellish a Pocket Letter. The main thing is to just have fun with it! Start with a clear Trading Card plastic protector page and start creating! The finished letter folds into thirds and fits into a business sized envelope (4" x 9") for mailing. Sure to make the recipient smile!

 Each little rectangle is approximately 2.5" x 3.5" like a trading card. Each pocket is a tiny space to create! I love to use sequins in some of mine to make is sparkly. I used a Fuse Tool to seal the top of the plastic once the sequins are inside. I am obsessed with the Doodlebug Rainbow Sequins in those tiny jars. I used the Cute and Crafty 6x6 Paper Pad and the 12x12 Paper Pad for the various pockets. I also used stickers, the Chit Chat elements and the Odds & Ends elements. No limit to what you can create!

 It's true! Craftiness is Happiness!

For this pocket, I used pretty pink polka dot paper and added white and silver sequins. Then I tossed in a cute pie stamp!

 Just some of my supplies!

 A little "extra" embellishment on the top to keep it closed once I fold it up! For these top two pockets I used the same pencil paper and made it go across two pockets as the background for the large word pieces!

 Here's my bright yellow envelope. I decorated that too of course!

 Happy Crafting! As my last step, I added hearts and enamel dots all over the place to make it even more cheerful and colorful. I think we should put Doodlebug Hearts on everything!!

I'll be back soon with another project. Until then, keep on crafting!
