Mini Initial PL

I've never made a mini pocket letter before, they should be easier than regular pocket letters because you cut the pocket page into threes, fill up one row for the mini pocket letter. I just didn't want to cut up my pocket pages. I had gotten one in a swap that wasn't in the greatest of shape, so I cut it up for this swap.
We had to take our partner's first or last initial and create something with them. My partner's initials were V and C. I really wanted to create something really cool with the V, but even after perusing my dictionary, I really didn't find much that inspired me.
Here's what I sent her:

I actually did use a violet background, and on the first one I used vellum, so I got a little bit of V in there.
I ended up paper piecing this cactus stamp from Micheal's. I used some Dollar Tree stickers for coffee. I used a couple Dollar Tree stickers and a dimensional sticker from Hobby Lobby for cupcake.
Here's what my partner sent me:

 And here's the pocket letter:

 Here are all the goodies:

Freestyle pocket letter

I signed up for a freestyle pocket letter on one of my facebook groups. I think it was basically, make whatever you like. I was tired of Valentine's but still had a hard time making something. I think I do better when I have a theme to go off of.
Here's what I made:

I found this paper in my stash that looked like a tree, so I decided to use up some of my owl stickers, I have a ton.
Background paper from Hobby Lobby. First row, first card: owl from a folder from Books A Million. Second card: orange sticker from HyVee Drugstore, pink owl from a swap. Third card: owl sticker from Dollar Tree.
Second row, first card: owl sticker from Dollar Tree. Second card: owl sticker from Dollar Tree. Third card: owl stickers from a swap.
Third row, first card: green sticker from Walmart, blue sticker from a swap. Second card: both stickers from Walmart. Third card: brown owl sticker from a swap, puffy bee sticker from my stash.
Here's what my partner sent me:

 She went with a Valentine's theme. Now I was a little tired of making Valentine's stuff, but I LOVE her take on this. Very cute!
She also included some coloring sheets:

 And these die cuts where in the back of the PL.
