Beautiful PL! I love that file folder die cut where you put your letter. And that teapot stickpin is just gorgeous. I also love when you incorporate laces on your PL. TFS Christina! xoxoElaine
Christina! What beautiful PLs you have made. I just love all the matching embellishments and the wonderful paper line. I really enjoyed watching you make these. Such a pleasure! Hugs Chetta
I love, love, love this one! I've shared this video in a FB group, to use as a starting point for new PL crafters. I think you have some of the best PL videos on YT.
This is such a beautiful and thoughtful pocket letter. You are so talented with putting things together. I personally love this theme so it speaks to me. Thank you. I have subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your videos.
Good afternoon from South Gate California. Just finished watching your video. Everything came out so beautiful. I'm about to make my second pocket letter swap and this video helps a lot. Thank you for being such an inspiration.
I'm a new subbie. Love your PL! The papers are beautiful and your embellishments are so perfect. Love those teapot stick pins. I'll have to see if I can find them. TFS
This is the first process video I've seen of a pocket letters, love it! I have some of the teapot charms, so what a fun idea! The file folder die cuts are so charming to me! Your whole project is so lovely. I am trying to catch up after just subscribing...Blessings!
I've never heard of pocket letters before until now because I have a Christmas exchange and the person in exchanging with put on her list of interest pocket letters and found your video. Now I know why she's into it - it's so cute. Lovely video and you have such a nice voice. =)
I am new to your channel and I love your PL's. You have such a sweet spirit. After my girlfriend saw your RAK from Lil Rhonda I told her the paper was from Michaels and she went out and got it. She loves it and I already had it. Love it. TFS
you are absolutely amazing! ! I just started my first PL tonight. well after watching your video, I see I need to add more. the thing is, I spent $60 today on supplies and I still feel like I don't have enough lol. I love the paper you were using, they are my favorite colors! I need to find that. thank you so much for the video!!
Hi Elissa, thank you so much for commenting! I know you posted a long time ago but believe me.... I can't keep up!! LOL! How did you PL go? Were you happy with the end result? The more PL's you make the easier and faster it gets! I think! LOL
I'm new to seeing these pocket letters and I came across your channel as to how to make them....thank you. They are beautiful and I really want to try to make one for my friends, but a little nervous.
Beautiful lovely PL,you are amazing how you decorate it so cute!! I am so new to this & am working on my first two & looking on here (YT) for inspiration & ideas. Tfs,hugs,Rachii.
Beautiful Pocket Letter! I really like the lovely colors too & you put so much detail into each pocket. Well done dear & TFS ~ Hugs, Gale The Happy Stamper :)
Hi Christine! Watching this A-Gain!!❤️ I Love your ease in teaching!! You said you made that “Currently” pocket? Do you sell them (Etsy)? Or, Can you teach us how to make one? I love that little thing!! & its a treasure to put into a pocket!! I like the “About Me” one also!! I’m surprised there aren’t more things out there “just” for pocket letters!! (Like precut & printed Stuff..dies & etc) Especially “for PL’s!!” ..However.. it is Fun to create & YOU are Such an inspiration!! Love your Creativity & Style!!😘🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️☺️
So pretty! I hope mine come out half as good as these. Would you mind sharing how you created the 'Currently' cards? I love that idea, but have no idea where to start! Thank you
I can't remember where I got the original. I think it was thelistgirl shop. So now I just recreated the same layout on my Word Processing software. That way there's no copyright laws or anything.
how do you get started on doing pocket letters? I do tons of crafting but never put on TH-cam sometimes feel won't be good enough or just to embarrassed or shy I should say..but this looks so very fun and was wandering how I could get started in making New friends and sharing.Thank you love your videos so very inspirational
Hi Rhonda, if you are on Facebook, there is a FB group called Pocket Letter Pals facebook.com/groups/pocketletterpals/ once you join and are accepted you can post that you're new and would like to swap. You could also join the PLP network and start swapping there too. www.pocketletterpals.com/ Oh, and don't be shy... once you start making videos you just might love it!
Hi Estella, I can't remember where I got the original. I think it was thelistgirl shop. I just recreated the same layout on my Word Processing software. That way there's no copyright laws or anything.
Obviously I'm a newbie so can you explain what the purpose I get that they're like a big card and I'm assuming one side you decorate your decorate the other side
If you don't have to make her a pocket letter and she just wants supplies, then I would buy her some pocket sleeves that you can get at Walmart or Staples etc. Maybe a 8x8 paper pad and color matching embellishments. Maybe pick a theme and then go to Micheals and shop around that theme. Make sure your embellishments are small to fit in the 21/2x31/2 pockets. You'll have fun shopping! Let me know how it goes.... email me at ca.betts@hotmail.com and send me photos of your shopping spree... would love to see!! xoxoxo
Oh my gosh I would love to do this! How do you find people to exchange with? You made these so wonderful I would love to exchange with you sometime if your taking new pocket pals!
Christina, this is so great. I would love to swap a pocket with you. I need my Candadian girl friend iincluded in my binder . I think you are the only buddy I haven't swapped with yet.
Hello! I absolutely love your taste! This is my first time ever seeing what a pocket letter is... I would love to experience exchanging some with you, how would I go about doing that? I truly just fell in love with your imaginable ideas and I really think this is something I would enjoy doing. Would you be interested in exchanging letters with me? If so, please tell me how we can go about doing so. Thank you so very much, Valene
instead of sending a letter to your friend or penpal you send a nine pocket letter instead, all filled with goodies they can enjoy and use in their projects. The nine pocket sleeve is then stored in a 3 ring binder.

Hi whatis an pocket letter used for?
instead of sending a letter to your friend or penpal you send a nine pocket letter instead, all filled with goodies they can enjoy and use in their projects. The nine pocket sleeve is then stored in a 3 ring binder.
Love this! Are you still swapping pocket letters?
Hi Marjolein, I haven't made a PL in ages! I wanted to make a Christmas themed one but didn't have time.
Understandable! I am getting addicted to making them, just made 4 Valentine themed ones!
good for you! just finishing up my December Daily and cleaning organizing my craftroom...
Awesome I did that to during my week off, feels good right?
almost finished! then vacuum! LOL :)
