Marilyn,
I enjoyed ATCs so much! Sometimes the size can be a challenge but for the most part they were pretty easy, at least for me. I've made hundreds, all designs. Haven't made any in a while, though!

I haven't made any ATC's in awhile either. I seen these pocket letters made using ATC's. This gets me thinking, future swap, maybe ;-)

Maddie,
In going through my plethora of crafting supplies I saw some Christmas stuff and thought . . . a Christmas Pocket Letter might be worth considering. Hmmmmmm! (Not using Christmas in this one, however)

Hobby Lobby has the sheet pockets too in the Scrapbook section with the ATC's. I have extras too if anyone needs some.

Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

There seems to be a lot of interest in the letters, so maybe future themed ones, like the Holidays will be in order :-)

Maddie, you, CeeJay, several others and I were ATC addicts at one time!! I still do them along for different swaps. Miss doing them. The last one I did was draw and water color a cat. It was fun!! Well good memories and many more to come!! Smiles, Beth

I would love to join in this Swap. Found the plastic pocket sheets at Office Max. Told them I needed the pages for Trading Cards and was taken right to them. $3.99 for a pack of 10 pages.

Hugs,

I miss making ATC's & sometimes make & include them in my swap tuck ins. I belong to different ATC groups but I enjoy the ones on MJF. Made with heart not competition. ;-)

Hi Linda :-) Welcome back. I have another thread with an attached video on pocket letters, I will bump it up & at the top of this thread is a video about mailing out the letters.
If you decide too join in, just post on this thread. :-)

I can't wait to see what you gals come up with. I am unable to do this at this time, but maybe next. I will have to start collecting stuff for next time! Have fun!

I can see doing a Christmas one later this year.
