Mini Pocket Letter Using Art by Miran Classy Cheryl - August Progressive Facebook Challenge

Hello friends.  How is everyone doing in this hot summer?  I have been having some major health challenges and unable to eat without severe stomach, back and migraine pain.  I would appreciate prayers from anyone who can take the time to pray for me.  I am at the end of my rope.  I keep trying to create more cards to take my mind off of the pain.  Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.  I always hate to burden others; but I know it always helps when I ask for Prayers.  I am having a lot of testing done to try and determine what is going on; but everything takes time.  It will be at least two weeks before the results come back.


It is time for another fabulous Art by Miran Progressive Challenge using this new Art by Miran Classy Cheryl.  I helped Art by Miran to name her and suggested Classy Cheryl after my very close friend Cheryl ; who is really like a sister to me.

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.  

Pocket Letter/Pocket Mail/Pocket Srapbooking Lovers - Cricut Artfully Sent is retiring and it has lots of pocket cards and sleeve cards for your Pocket letters.  So many awesome cards to choose from.  Click here to see the handbook.  Click here to view more information on this awesome Cricut Cartridge - 700 plus items.  All images can be sized for your specific pocket card with the Cricut Explore Cutting Machine.
