Description:

If you're like me, you love to create pockets to send paper goodies to your penpals! PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a pocket letter swap.

For this swap, you will send a paper pocket filled with ephemera. The contents you enclose can be sender's choice but it's always nice to receive something you know your partner will like. Here are some ideas of goodies I like to enclose: stickers, tags, book pages, washi tape samples, bookmarks, labels, vintage ephemera, tickets, notecards, journaling cards, photos, postcards, etc. I personally like to make my own diy ephemera as well. Please be sure to look at their profile to see their likes and dislikes. This is a flat mail swap however, it is pretty easy to get carried away and fill these pockets up quickly and it can get bulky.

Now, on to the pocket. Be creative! Decorate it however you'd like, but really put forth some effort. You can draw, paint, stamp, paste... Pick a theme, or be totally random. The possibilities are endless! And don't feel intimidated... This is for beginners, after all! :)

Here are some quick pocket tutorials and inspiration videos:

Forgive me, but wouldn't this be a type-3 swap, since we're making a craft? :)

@SarahMascara it’s a little of both but unfortunately I can’t classify it in both sections. This is why I do my best with providing details in the description. P.S. I apologize for the late response as I didn’t see this comment until now.
