Pocket Letters?! Heard of them but never did any! So this will be my first!!

Pocket Letter Newbie

This swap is for Pocket letter newbies {Though anyone is able to join just keep in mind it's newbie friendly} who want a chance to try out this new penpal craze, in a safe, judgment free swap. No stress, no worries. For this swap there is no wrong way of doing a Pocket Letter.

You will have one partner. Basically, you fill up a 9 pocket trading card sleeve with 2.5 X 3.5 scrapbook paper, cards, etc. Think quotes, stickers, ribbon, washi, And, inside the pockets you tuck in the back, little goodies. They might be washi tape samples , ribbon, stickers, buttons, embellishments, tea bag, sequins ( in a sealed package please) etc, One of the pockets holds a nice letter from you, about a 1/2 page, include a little about yourself.

You do not have to decorate the back of the pocket, only the front if you want, decorating is not a requirement.

You will rate your partner a 5 for receiving a pocket letter. It doesn't matter if you like it or not. Remember this is for newbies, but open to everyone.

If your pocket letter is late you may rate them a 3 if you like. And of course if you don't receive it they will get a rating of a 1

Make sure the swap name and your Swapbot name is on there somewhere.

Remember: this swap is for people who are new at pocket letters, so if your picky, this may not be the swap for you

Try to keep things relatively flat, when you fold this letter into thirds, you can mail it in a long envelope.

Shouldn't there be a rating minimum ? Just asking

Is there anywhere that has pictures of Pocket Letters? I think this sounds like so much fun but not sure I completely understand it. Thanks so much.

I went to YouTube and looked at pocket letter tutorials. These are absolutely wonderful. Love them.
