Mini Pocket letter Using 3 x 4 CTMH Picture My Life Cards With Everyday Life Memory Protectors

Hello friends. I hope everyone is staying cool with all of this super hot weather. It is too hot to do anything outside in Southern CA. Over 100 degrees this week! I saw somewhere in CA where it was over 120 degrees. I feel so bad for the people who live in that area.

It is time for another fabulous Art by Miran Anything Goes Blog Challenge. I decided to try my hand at creating my version of the Mini Pocket Letter. I also created a video; which takes you through creating one of these pocket letters.

I didn't have the Player card size pocket holder; so I used the CTMH 3 x 4 Memory Protector pages that hold Picture My Life cards. These are part of the fabulous CTMH Everyday Life Album/Planner. There are 3 different sized memory protectors for this album; so any of them could be used for a pocket letter. Check out the other Picture My life cards and products to create Pocket Letters or Pocket Scrapbooking.

I needed a Memory Protector that would be big enough for my Art by Miran digi image. It turned out perfect. It took me longer to create this pocket letter than it would have to create a card; because it was all new to me. I have used the CTMH Picture My Life cards for scrapbooking; but have never thought to use them as a pocket letter.

I hope you enjoy my Mini Pocket letter and will try this size; as it is perfect. I was intimidated by the 9 player card memory protectors; and later saw people dividing them into mini ones; but I actually like using the 3 x 4 size much better. This is my first pocket letter; so I am sure they will improve with practice. LOL! I just found a tutorial for little envelopes that will work great for holding the gifts for this pocket letter. So many fabulous ideas out there on YouTube.

Happy New Year! My Favorite Card Creations for 2014

Hello Friends. Happy New Year! I sure hope everyone has a fabulous New Year. I know there is a lot of illness already this winter; so I am hoping it will clear up very soon for anyone who is having the challenge of their family being sick over the holidays.

It has been a very rough year for my health and my mother's health; but we are still very blessed compared to a lot of other people. My husband is healthy. I am very grateful for my life and for everyone who is a part of it!

The New Year always brings me a sense of Gratitude. I think it is a good time to look back at everything you have to be thankful for; rather than to look at all that is wrong in your life. It is a time to start a healthier lifestyle, a diet, a new hobby, set new goals, or New Year Resolutions. Whatever you choose to do; just remember to be grateful for all that you currently have.

I had a very difficult time choosing the cards that were my favorites. Each of my cards were created from a place of love; and with a desire to make someone smile. I have added the links for you to view the digi that I used; plus the link to my blog; so you can review the supplies I used; in case you want to create something similar. The names are above the pictures. These are listed in order of the latest to the oldest. I noticed I had more Easel cards this year. Last year; I had more side step cards.It looks like my Top 20. LOL!
