RE-READ:


Hey Pocket Letter Swappers...How About a Valentine/Easter Swap

I know it is closer to Valentine's Day than I wish it was but I think
we still have time. Our dear Maddie (regular hostess) has hurt her
elbow and it hurts for her to use very much...so, she asked me
to Hostess and I am so Happy to do it this time.

What we will do is Front Side of the Pocket Letter will be Valentines
And the Back side will be Easter. If you have not done a two themed
Pocket Letter before they are really FUN!

I will do some kind of give away (like Maddie did) but it probably won't
be hand made. But will in someway be Pocket Letter Related.

* When you sign-up please state if you want Religious Easter or
Traditional Spring (Bunnies/eggs/baskets) or BOTH! *

Sign up for this Pocket Letter starts now and will end January 22nd.
Then I will post partners no later than January 23rd.
Mail Out will be February 5th


So, who wants to join in the FUN???

This is the pretty pocket letter from Pam. I love the hanky with embroidered flowers in the middle pocket. She also sent a floral hand towel, which I'll use when I go to the gym.

My little sister Vanessa (Audra Rose) sent me the most beautiful pocket letter.



Front



Back

My sister is the most creative person I know.

She also sent me this wonderful vintage paper doll set.



Front



Center with doll. Only one of the dolls is left which tells me this set was much loved. I have the clothes for the others.



I especially like the back.

OMG - thanks to Peggy and Linda! What a surprise! As you all know, Linda won the drawing but what you don't know is that she had Peggy send it to me instead. It was full of spring goodies and I'll use everyone of them. As a matter of fact, the bunny banner is already hanging in my cubicle at work.

Thanks to all of you for the kind words about the pocket letter I made for Linda. The Easter side started out with bunnies only but the fairies wouldn't let me say no. They kept creeping onto my desk so I finally had to add them.

Pam...talk about a Girl going the Extra-Mile to show off your Talent and Creativity...
that would be Linda! I thought that was so Sweet that she sent those pictures to me to
post. And sometime this week...you will see her do something else equally sweet!

Hugs and Smiles,
Peggy

Thanks so much Peggy for posting those for me and I thought Pam did a fantastic job
on her pocket letter. You are so welcome, glad you liked the tuck ins.

LadyInRed Posted - Feb 20 2016 : 4:02:29 PM
These are pictures I am posting for Linda/Hummingbirdjoy of The Pocket Letter that Pam Cook made for
her. I had to take pictures of pictures...so they aren't as clear as I would have liked but I think
you will still be able to see what a Fabulous Job that Pam Cook did on this Swap. I particularly loved
the Fairy Page. Awesome Job Pam!!!



And The Valentine Side



Linda...thanks for the tucks along with the pictures to post. You really didn't have to do that
but it was very Sweet of you and I will enjoy each of them. I shared the candy bar with my hubby.
We both love that kind!

Hugs and Smiles,
Peggy

Pam, my hubby picked up your package today and I LOVE your pocket letter !!! Both sides
are beautiful and so creative and you even included chocolate..yum...yum. I've already
taken full pictures of both sides and will be sending them to Peggy tomorrow so she can
post them for me. Oh my gosh, the Easter side with bunnies and fairies was so cute, you
put such unique details into both sides. Can't wait for everyone to see them! Thanks
so much!

Lavender Rose Posted - Feb 15 2016 : 1:06:21 PM
Portia you are Welcome. Happy you liked everything. The little hearts were very easy and quick to make. That is if you crochet lol! Thanks for a great Swap. Oh by the way, I will use some of the things in my Pocket Letters eventually.

It's wonderful to see pictures of all the work that goes into Pocket Letters. Such Great inspiration for each of us! Looking forward to another one in the future.

Farm Girl Hugs,
Brenda

Pam's special pocket letter arrived at my po box a few days ago but my hubby is only able to
pick up items at our po box once a week. He will be going again on Wednesday and I will take
pics of Pam's pocket letter and send to you Peggy to post if you don't mind since I am not
able to. Thanks so much for hosting and it was so much fun to make my first pocket letter.

Thanks also for drawing my name for the prize!

Thanks Marie - I am sending a picture of the Valentine side - Marie did a grand job of chronicling the history of Valentine's Day. It was fun pulling out the cards to find the continuing stories on back. Lots I sure didn't know. She did the same with Easter. Look for the tiny crocheted heart she sent with the other goodies (mmm. dark chocolate)
Peggy - thanks for hosting this. It was lots of fun.

Brenda, I absolutely love the PL you sent me. It is chock full of beautiful things. I adore the little crocheted hearts!!! They are tooo precious. You are very talented. I could never make those....especially since I don't crochet!And, I don't think I could even if I did crochet. They are so intricate.The tags are gorgeous as well. All the Easter things will be put to good use, too. Thank you again for the wonderful PL. You make a great partner.

Hugs,
Portia

Wishing for the country life!
ptroupe Posted - Feb 15 2016 : 08:09:08 AM
