Pocket letter #1

Soooo I couldn't resist and got into the sweet addiction of making pocket letters:) How could any crafter resist, right?
Although I have been crafting for a while now, until a year ago I had very few supplies. This has dramatically changed since then, though:) It has come to the point where I can officially call myself a hoarder. And while I am still missing basic tools, I have hoarded a lot of paper pads, gems, sequence, stickers etc, you know, the normal things. Like many of you, I tend to hoard the things I like best, weird, right?

I see pocket letters as a great opportunity to not only meet some amazing people from all over the world, but also to use up my stash. While I love card making, I typically need a subject, a goal to sit me down to create. This is how PLs stimulate my creativity- you typically have a theme, barely any restrictions on materials etc., you might have a plan when you first sit down, but you get so many new ideas while you are actually working on it. After an hour of PL-ing, I have so many ideas for projects and cards and albums, I had to start writing it all down.


And with no further ado- here is the first ever PL I created.



I got use the glitter gel pens I got a year ago and I got to use Distress inks to actually blend rather then watercolour. It is far away from perfect but I had fun making it and I got inspired by -drum roll- myself!!!!!

If you would like me to say exactly what I did and used, just say the word and I will add that to this post!

Have a creative day!
