If you look on Pinterest and search Pocket Letters you will see so many examples of what they can look like. The possibilities are endless. This round we will do a Fall or Thanksgiving theme.

Let's have 2 partners on this first round so that we can have two different pages to get ideas for future rounds. You can make two identical pocket pages and just include different penpal type letters with each.

1. You will use a clear plastic 9 pocket baseball card holder to hold your letter and ephemera.

2. One side will be the main decorative side and the backside should have decor but can also be a place to tuck some surprises/stationary supplies etc.

3. All participants are required to include an actual 1 page (or more) letter to each partner folded up and placed into one of the 9 pockets.

4. When you mail this to your partner you should be able to fold the page into thirds and slip it into a long legal sized envelope if it is not too fat. Or mail flat in a manilla envelope. Please take to the post office to ensure correct amount of postage and package envelope with clear packaging tape to strengthen the envelope.

4. Here is a list of other types of things you could put in some of the pockets-

*TAGS *TEA *STICKERS *LETTER *PAPERCLIPS *SHAKERS *EPHEMERA *MAIL TAG *HOLIDAY *MAGNET *WASHI * and more stickers
