Good Morning Everyone,
I wanted to share a new trend of crafting that I am just having a blast with. This is such an awesome way to use up those scraps that you don't want to throw out, but don't know what to do with, plus a great way to meet new people and make new friends.
Do yourself a favor and check it out http://www.pocketletterpals.com/ They have groups and events to match anyone's likes, and if you don't find one you like, you can create a group or event of your own, or just play outside the groups.
There seems to be two ways peeps are doing these; collectors and/or swappers. I'm not the collecting type, so swapping works best for me. I'm able to find fun ways to use up my scraps and send off goodies to a new home, and in return I get the same. I just PLAIN FUN!!
There's really no set rule on how to make these and a lot of girls put little goodies behind the pockets that they crafts, but I decided to make the little goodies I send part of the decorations.
Here are the first 3 I've made. I asked my recipients a few questions so I could hopefully create their PL in ways they would like. I couldn't post them before now, because I like to wait for the recipient to get them first, but here they are.

These are sweet. It looks like you are using a plastic page made for baseball cards. Is that correct?
Hugs,
