almost everyday there is something new for me to try and this pocket is a great example...I thought on it last night and decided I was tired of sweet colors (I'm sure it's a momentary thing!). I am certain my DS will appreciate a trip to the local DQ in the small town where he goes to university. We have a family tradition on Thursday nights to go for sweet treats, so it's possible this pocket will arrive in his mailbox just in time. I cut down the dimensions slightly and used MME double sided paper. This All About U set is new to me, I attended my very first SU party recently and the demo was selling a box of her retired sets...I was like a girl in a shoe store!!! couldn't come home without several sets...big smile! Anyway, I stamped a shadow U in Colorbox peacock gold, Versamarked and clear ep'ed the MME "U" and then had the idea to use my pinking shears. It is popped on foam. The arrow is again on MME paper. I thought staples would had a guy sort of touch. Corner rounder my edges and metal tag letters from Michaels $1 bin several years ago. I know it will make him smile and that makes me happy just to think about ! Thanks for reading and your comments

Very cute--I like how you went for different colors and put his name on it--and no doubt your son will LOVE receiving it (especially with the goodie inside!) Thanks for playing!
