Welcome Autumn Pocket Letter

I absolutely love making pocket letters.  So when Jody over at SpiegelMom Scraps hosted another pocket letter swap, I jumped right in!  The swap's theme was Fall.

If you are new to pocket letters, they are penpal letters in pocket format. Basically, you fill all the pockets of a 9 Pocket Page Protector (or similar) and send the whole page to someone who wants to swap or to your existing penpal(s). You fill the pockets with the components of a typical pen pal letter.  

One of the most fun parts of a pocket letter is gifting / receiving crafty goodies for future use.  For this letter, I created my own ephemera by punching various images from one of the sheets in the DCWV Autumn Splendor stack.
