Peggy!! I love the Scotty Dog and Cat!! It was so much to remember for my ole heat baked brain!! I am going to do something special with them.

My pictures are not even loading, I am getting a "500 Internal Server Error" box. never seen that before. Only Mary Jane's farm! I emailed Brian and he is on a glamping trip till Tuesday. My god-son works for geek Squad will be here tonight or tomorrow and I will ask him to check it out.

Farmgirl hugs! Connie

Marie,
I received your Pocket Letter last Saturday. I loved it. Lots of seeds and summer recipes. Loved your letter. I have been trying to post pictures but my computer won't cooperate. Contacted Mac support today. Hope to post in a few days.
Thanks again.
Hugs,

Patsy,
It's probably not your computer that is the issue with not posting pics. Several of us have been trying to post pics . . . and I've never had problems with it . . . and are unable to do so. I've contacted the tech guy at the farm and others have emailed Brian.
I know that most of the were "gone glamping" through today.
So, you might check and see in a day or so and try again.

I am also unable to post photos and have not been able to do so for awhile. I assumed it was my computer, but it sounds like it may be a website problem. I hope that it gets fixed, I would love to share my all beautiful farm girl treasures I have received with everyone.

Yes...it is an MJF Problem. My gals on The Porch are having hissy-fits about not being able to post pics
and losing their regular posts.

Hopefully we will get it resolved when the Glampers get home. I didn't know guys were into glamping...I
think that is soooooooooooo Awesome!!! (+:

Hugs,

This is the pocket letter I received from Patsy.

Letter and Charm



Treats and Pendant

I now have to make a binder for my pocket letters and start a charm bracelet. I love everything about this letter. The art cards were especially well crafted.

Thank you Patsy.

Marlee...my first one I didn't do both sides...because the tutorial I watched didn't show doing that...but I did
both sides for the next two I made because everyone does both sides and it just makes it all the more fun.

You just use your own imagination on how you want to lay out your cards. I pick a theme and then find paper and
stickers to go along with my theme. I usually start with my middle square in the second row of the Pockets and
build out from there. I also may place the other cards several times before I am happy with my lay out...and then
I build it all out from there. even decorate a little on the outside of the plastic pockets.

Watch Pocket letter tutorials and you will get all kinds of ideas.

Love and Hugs,
Peggy

Marlee,
I used the backs in each pocket to write my letter. I used pretty scrapbook paper, not just white paper. I numbered each one ("page") so that my partner knew in which order to read them.

I'm so sorry, I'm posting this very late. I have had a really busy summer, and all sorts of technical issues off and on this summer. Here is the beautiful pocket letter that Mary Beth sent me. She did send it on time, I just was unable to post a picture until now. Thank you so much Mary Beth! :)

I sent her seeds to plant and recipes for drinks and food to use them in. I also included examples of tea which brews up nicely in the sun.

Thank you, Peg and CJ. I am going to do one. Because you both know me as I love doing new crafties. The last three month have been horrible , my hubby has medical issues and it is me doing everything. But he is getting better. It is not dementia. Some of his meds were causing his problem so he has been taking off them . So anyway I want to get back to my scrappy life.LOL.
So I just love the pocket letters.

Hugs Marlee

CeeJay that is a great idea to write your letter on the back of each pocket and number them. I recently made one for my friends birthday. She called me, so excited about her funny mail. I had to explain. She has an embroidery machine so I included a lot of trims to use with that. I did put in chocolates and different teas and coffees, but no stickers, no Washi,etc. I did put in a roll of Orange elastic to make pony tail ties for her four little granddaughters, ages two, three and four. It was fun.
