Description:

For this swap you will send one Day of the Dead themed pocket letter to one partner. The image is from a goggle image search.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are different ways pocket letters can be done, so I will delineate the expectations for this swap here.

Front: Fill each pocket of a 9 slot plastic card protectors with a decorated 2.5 X 3.5 piece of cardstock. Think of it like making 9 ATCs without the sturdy backs except each ‘card’ does not have to be a breath-taking work of art. You definitely can use stickers!! Please however, do more than slap a single sticker on each piece of paper and call it done. Layers different elements and mix your media. Remember the emphasis is on the overall aesthetic of the entire page and not the artistry of any one single pocket.

Back: You don't have to embellish this side but make sure it looks pretty. Double sided cardstock works well for these letters. You can also insert another sheet of decorated paper on the backside if the paper you use for the front is one sided.

In the first pocket back insert a small letter to your partner. The other 8 pockets are yours to fill with goodies for your partner. Goodies do not have to be theme or profile specific, but it never hurts. Ideas for things that can be inserted into the back pockets include, but are not limited:

Stickers

Washi Tape

Tea

Stamps

Bling dots

Confetti

Brads

Punch outs

paper ephemera

paper clips

ribbon

embellishments

Really anything you can think of that is flattish!

Make sure you have enough postage as these can get heavier.

FYI for this swap. I will go through profiles before assigning partners and ban anyone who doesn't meet the requirements at that time.

Do the pockets have to be filled with card stock or is pretty decorated paper ok?

Any pretty paper is okay
