TPD: Receiver's Choice Mini Book w/Pockets Ed.16/2

Back by popular demand! lol

Since this is receiver's choice, to assist your partner in making your swap, please post below by the swap sign up date:

(1) At least 3 general themes (nothing obscure or difficult please, or I will have to remove your themes and it will then be sender's choice)
AND
(2) At least 3 basic colours (again, nothing difficult please)

Your partner may mix and match the themes and/or colours if they like, or just focus on one of each. They may also use other colours as accents.

If you do not post this info, or if I have to remove it, it will be sender's choice.

Using the theme(s) and colour(s) you have chosen from your partner's list, decorate the mini book and fill each of the 8 pockets with one little thing.

Please note for filling the pockets:

At least two pockets must contain a handmade item - you may use any materials and any techniques you like.
AND
One pocket must contain a personal note to your partner.
AND
The other 5 pocket items may be purchased or handmade - sender's choice.

Ideas for filling the pockets:
- embellishments, e.g., paper flowers, rhinestone stickers, chipboard shapes, etc.
- die cuts
- fun ribbon, string, yarn, thread, etc.
- buttons
- tags
- ornaments
- mini envelopes
- clear stamps
- a poem, saying, joke, etc.
- stamped images
- brads
- ATCs
- inchies/twinchies
- tiny zine
- beads
etc.

Please see this swap for links to video and written tutorials on making the mini-book with pockets. There is also additional information in the comments on that swap page that might help anyone who has not made one of these mini books before.

Added Feb. 16:
If you cannot find double sided paper you can hand decorate the blank side of a sheet of scrapbooking paper using zentangle, doodling, etc., or you can stamp (and perhaps colour) it. It is only necessary to decorate the part of the paper that will show when folded. Do NOT try gluing 2 sheets of scrapbooking paper together as it will be too thick and the folds will peel/ shred.

Please pm me if you have any questions as I do not check my swaps every day. Thx.
