Description:

this is a new idea I have seen and thought it would make a great monthly swap.

This is a great blog to give you an idea what they are all about

Basically you get a 9 pocket trading card page. these are available at most postoffices/ newsagents/ebay

they will fold in 3 and fit in a normal business envelope

You fill each pocket with something, the blog gives lots of ideas

March: Theme as given

April: Easter

May:pets

June :fav movie/tv series

July ;Tags (make 9 beautiful tags to go into each pocket letter). Make sure they are angled at the top, have a hole and have ribbon/twine/lace etc threaded through.

August:Emboss (pick 9 of your embossing folders) and create 9 beautiful cards to go into each pocket ... If you dont have 9 double ups are ok or any embossing folders, get in touch with me and I can send you some embossed cardstock to work with :)

September: Stamp it- Choose 9 of your fav stamps and make a beautiful card with each to go into each pocket.

October:- Profile based. Check your partner's profile and make pretty pocket letters that will delight them.

November: 5- By request. In the comments section, put a list of topics/characters/requests and your partner can make any or all of what you have requested.

December: Christmas

Any questions please ask

A quick question. Do the pockets have to be trading card size (I'm having trouble finding them) or would a 9 pockets business card plastic holder from office works be ok? The are pretty much exactly the same thing except the business card pockets are a few mm smaller than the trading cards ones. Cheers helen
