"IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE" - POCKET LETTER

For a theme swap on the official "Pocket Letter Pals" website.

I created this thinking of what I remembered the holidays "looking like" when I was a child (50s/60s) and the theme I most remembered.

"WONDERLAND SCENE" - A POCKET LETTER TO SWAP AT POCKET LETTER PALS

I need to NOT sign up for another holiday themed Pocket Letter LOL  This one and another (I can't show yet) are going into the mail today, then I think I have only two more to get out this month.  But you know how it is when you are deep into something new.

This one is inspired by and created with several Bo Bunny paperlines from a year ago or so.  I was looking for blues and these were perfect.  I have always been keen on garlands (and other hangie things) and find most (all) of my PLs are decorated with a garland of one sort or another.  This one is quite a bit "quieter" than I would normally do but the scene just cried out "leave me alone"!




I played with the blues of the paper on the back, used the journal spots and tags as the base of the pockets.  All were glittered up and filled with blue, silver and a few red bits.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL - POCKET LETTER

We have started a Pocket Letter Swap group here in Victoria BC.  This morning was our first swap, everyone quickly agreed we should do more!  What creativity!  I have created a "Pocket Letters Victoria BC Swap Group" pinboard and posted photos of everyone's PLs, feel free to check it out under my Pinterest account.  I think we will focus on holiday themes so next will be Valentine's Day.

Here is what I put together for Gloria;

All based on Graphic 45's "A Christmas Carol" papers, playing up the blue, green and pink palette. The front



and the back.
