Pocket Letters Everywhere!

Hello Hello!! 

I wanted to share more of my Biggest Obsession right now!!  Pocket Letters!!

You know how the gorgeous Project Life kits come with so many cards? Well after I use them for my layouts, I add the rest on Pocket Letters. I am also using a lot of the Take Ten Kits items, especially their glam blags. You can also just take a trip to a dollar spot and find gorgeous stuff! Anything small enough to fit is game! 

I am loving the fact that I get to send out handwritten letters to so many different states and sometimes even international!  

Pocket letters is all about making friendships, having penpals, sendng and receiving happy mail, and spreading the love! 

Here are some of the ones I worked on this past month:

It's Not Just Tuesday..It's Take Ten Tuesday!!

When you take ten minutes out of your day to do something crafty...it can be organizing, it can be creating home decor...or like me..playing with inks! 

I learned this technique from a very talented member of a project life swap card group on facebook. 

All you need is this: 

Step 1 

Step 2

Step 3 

Once dried, I cut the piece of cardstock down to fit inside a 4x6 card to use in my Project Life pages.

That gorgeous "YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE"is a custom wood veneer design for the May Take 10 Glam Bag kit from The Studio 29 Designs  It comes in the usual wood veneer, I just added some white and yellow color to match my theme. 

Stop by our facebook Group too at Take10Kits

Take time to create something today!!!

Below are the kits for April 

Glam Bag

April Take 10 Pocket Kit (Double sided cards) 

Here is the Project Life Layout that I created with the kits:
This is our Easter in 2012

Used a piece of the Amy Tan Transparent Stickers that comes in the glam bag for this 3x4 card

Ever since I discovered water colors, I love adding them to cards to make them more "me". 

This 4x6 sun burst card was already so cute! 

Used Tim Holtz Distress Paints to color these cute wooden veneers.

Isn't that the perfect stamp!! 

Dots are from the Amy Tan Transparent Sticker set

Thank you for stopping by!!

The LayOut

I am a Project Lifer..by heart. When I first Discovered Project Life,  I was certain that I still wanted to add a layout in between my PL pages. After a while, I realized I was just sticking to PL pages. 

But every once in a while..there's that one photo that just screams Layout. 

Below is one of my favorite layouts that I've made this year...

Of course using stencils and Tim Holtz mini distress inks..

It's cool to see how my "style"has changed throughout the years. Most of the layouts that I do now always have a white or light colored background. 

Here is one of my older layouts
