Description:

Fill the pockets of a clear trading card sheet with all sorts of fun goodies in a mint green and metallic gold theme. Neutral colors and small colored accents are allowed as long as the over all look is obviously mint/gold. Please include a letter meant to introduce yourself in one of the pockets (can be typed and/or on the shorter side.)

Please keep in mind that many people collect these letters in binders, so no pocket should be completely empty after the goodie is picked. For instance, if you filled a pocket with a tea bag, maybe also include a pretty piece of paper behind it so that remains after the tea is used.

Must use a standard clear 9 pocket trading card protector sheet. This is a good place to learn about pocket letters. Janette has done many follow up posts with a Q&A, videos, and photos of pocket letters she has sent and received. Browse around for inspiration.

Ideas of what to include:

  • atc
  • letters
  • washi tape samples
  • drawings
  • magazine articles
  • papers, labels, penpal supplies
  • tea, food/beauty samples
  • photos
  • embellishments
  • zines

Make sure you take your envelope to the window at the post office. It might be too thick to mail as a letter. Better safe than sorry.

USA only swap. You must have a 4.98 rating, and no 1's or 3's within the last 6 months to participate. I reserve the right to ban anyone I feel will not follow through, including people who only have ratings based on online swaps. I will angel if there are any flakers.

Next up in the series is going to be yellow and grey.

Just to be sure, do the goodies inside the pockets have to follow the theme colors? Or just the decorative front of the pockets?

Absolutely take to post office. I have been charged from $2.53 down to $1.19. even .70/ Depends on the clerk I think as to whether it is a package or thick envelope. All depends on what you put in it to make it thick.
