It said, "hey, you just got some more Forest paper that has some of these colors in it so go make another pocket letter." I was inspired by Kyra's colors, multi layers of texture and images, and the lovely details. I didn't spend a ton of time on each ATC in my pocket letter, but I did use some stencils, cut out a fox, eagle, fish, and foliage from other paper sheets in the pad, and added in some encouraging words like she did. Behind each ATC is a little treat (chipboard embelishments, a little letter, a recipe, and some fun accents for the recipient to use on her creations).
Thanks for the inspiration, Kyra, and congrats on being the FS this week.
Thanks for the

Wow Nancy your pocket letter is amazing!! and i love the nature design and pretty texture!!
I've made several pocket letters and we had a kind of swap with some Dutch girls but we don't do this anymore because the postal costs are too high, I'm glad to see one today!!

More Nancy Awesomeness here! I love your pocket letter and how you filled it with so many beautiful scenes/animals/feelings. And, you found the perfect sentiments for each layer of this delightful letter. I think anyone would be thrilled to receive this but then you just upped the fun with notes and treats. What a wonderful friend you are and what a wonderful gift to a friend. You rock.
Nancy, what a beautiful case of Kyra's card. I have never heard of a pocket letter. Each and every rectangle is beautiful and the main image of each draws the eye in for a closer look. Amazing!
