  2. I think I need a workshop. Still not getting exactly what a pocket letter is. Sort of like an ATC...I'm thinking...but different. Maybe I'll sit back and watch this one.

    2. You're not far off, Carol. Think of them as ATCs with a theme and then add other fun things in a couple of the pockets and tuck in a note about yourself. The Design Team will be making sample cards all month long. We hope you'll join in!!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
