Unicorn card

I signed up to do a unicorn card swap in one of my groups:
I layered some clouds, added the unicorn, the sun sticker and the 'sparkle' sticker. After taking this picture, I layered the 'sparkle' sticker on some white paper to make it stand out better.
Here's what my partner sent me:
 Inside it says 'all i could find is this unicorn poo' with a poop emoji in unicorn colors. I'm not a fan of the poop emoji, I'm not sure I know anyone who is, so I don't really know what I'll do with this card. It's cute, though.
She also sent me some extras:
I really love the bookmark.

Fantasyland flip book

I signed up to do a fantasyland flip book in one of my facebook groups. Here's what I made:
 I used some paper I got from Hollar for the backgrounds, this fairy is a wall sticker from Dollar Tree.
When you flip it open
 Close-up of left page:
 This paper was from my stash, the purple flowers are from a unicorn wall sticker pack from Dollar Tree. The fairy is from a swap, I colored it with gel pens.
Close-up of right page
I added a unicorn to the background (Dollar Tree) and some punched butterflies (a swap), I also added some bling as their bodies (my stash).
When you flip it to the right:
 Close-up of middle page:
 The flowers and leaves are from the fairy wall sticker (Dollar Tree), I added lace to the bottom (garage sale) and some puffy fairies and a toadstool house (RAK).
Close-up of right page:
 I chose monsters for this page. I added half of a journaling card (a swap) for a pocket. I have a lot of monster stickers that I never seem to use. I fussy cut the purple guy (Dollar Tree), added some tiny ones (Walmart) and the kraft colored one (Walmart) as well as the puffy yellow guy (Dollar Tree). I added the ogre to look like he's peeking out of the pocket (Micheal's), I also added the fairy to the pocket (Micheal's). I added some monster tape (Dollar Tree) to the bottom.
When you flip this page to the right:
Close-up of third page:
 I added some rainbow tape (Dollar Tree) to the bottom. I had put the purple unicorn (TJ Maxx) on the bottom first and then decided to add the tape, so one of his legs is sad. I added the pegasus (Dollar Tree) to the top as well as the 'Best Day ever' sticker (Hobby Lobby), it's a clear sticker, so I put it on white paper before adding it to the page. I also added the two small unicorns (Micheal's) to the bottom.
Close-up of right page:
 I added layers of the paper on foam tape to make waves. I put the blue haired mermaid (Dollar Tree) behind one of the waves. I also put the pink haired and purple haired mermaids (Hobby Lobby) so they are partly behind and on top of the layers. I then added the two mermaids (a swap) to the bottom. I also added a sun sticker (TJ Maxx) to the top. I was going to put a few mermaids in behind the top wave, but I forgot.
Here's how I packaged it:
I wrapped some fibers (a swap) around the book, tied them in a bow and added a unicorn charm (garage sale) and a couple unicorn paper clips (swaps). I also included another of the Dollar Tree fairies in the back for my partner.
Here's what I got in return:
 I love the style of this flip book, it's like a bunch of mini file folders.
First flip:
 Second flip:
 Last flip:
 And the goodies:
I really like all the printouts she included.

Unicorn/fairy mini pocket letters

I've really embraced the unicorn/mermaid thing. I feel I've done a lot of mermaid art swaps, but not so many unicorn ones, so I signed up for a unicorn/fairy mini pocket letter. I'm generally not a huge fan of the mini pocket letters because I have to cut apart my pocket sleeves and they're so much smaller (which I get is the appeal), but I like to create a whole page and put a bunch of goodies in them.
I wished for unicorn ephemera on one of my facebook groups, and they sure delivered:

 Sadly, I found out I could not find fairy ephemera anywhere. I looked at Walmart, Dollar Tree, and Hobby Lobby (I probably should have checked out JoAnn's). I found one sheet of very large fairy stickers at Dollar Tree and bought them (but ended up not using them).
Here's what I made:
 For this one, I just cut out some random papers for the backgrounds, then I added these springy tags I got at Target at the beginning of spring but never used. The two fairy stickers were sent on a card for something else, I peeled them off very carefully and put them on the tags. The unicorn is actually Lisa Frank it's from a sticker book from Dollar Tree. I also added some heart washi and a blingy flower trim to the bottom. I stuck the tags on with foam tape with the idea that my partner could use them if she wanted.
 Again, I went with plainer backgrounds. The unicorns are all from that bunch that I was sent, I picked out two taller ones to face each other for the ends. The middle one is supposed to look like she's jumping over the fairy. The fairies on the ends were sent to me in a swap, as well as the middle one. I added some sequin birds to the first card, round sequins with bling in the middle to the second one and some sequin butterflies to the third one.
I already had this sleeve filled with the background paper, so I just added to it. The first card has some stamped fairies that I found in my stamped image bag, they are on mushrooms so I added a mushroom sticker from a swap. Again the unicorns are all from that bunch above, as is the rainbow. The fairy on the second card is also from my stash. I added a felt flower from Hobby Lobby to the last card, and made it look like my unicorn is hiding under it. I saw on a YouTube video that someone had framed their pocket letter in jewels, so I thought I'd try it on this one.
I tried to add a little bling to all of them. I don't have a picture of the goodies, but I tried to add another of the unicorns I used and a copy of the fairies I used. I had also made a few unicorn paper clips from that bunch, and added one to each pocket letter.
Here's what I got from my partners:
The goodies:
 I like the paperclips and the washi. I'm not a big fan of the page flags.
More goodies:
I wish people would ask if you use planner stuff.
And my second partner:
The goodies:
I love all the stickers, and the washi and the pictures and even those I'm not a sequin person, I like this little mix.
And my third partner:
Everything fell out in the envelope and she didn't tell me what was supposed to be decorating the pocket letter. I like the die cuts, the sticko stickers and the unicorn paperclip.

Unicorn flip book

I had signed up to do a flip book swap on one of my facebook groups, see this post, she was going to send me a unicorn themed one and accidentally sent the wrong one. I got this one in the mail the other day.
Front:
I love the background paper and the unicorn, it's tail kinda looks like raffia.
First spread:
The girl on the right, is actually a stamp. I love how she used bright colors with buttons on the right.
Second spread:
Love the butterfly. The right side is an envelope.
Third spread
It has a sweets theme, very cute.
Fourth spread:
The pocket on the left has journaling cards in it. I really like the page on the right.
Fifth spread:
The left page is a mini file folder and the right page flips open.
Sixth spread:
I also love the unicorn on this one and the bright colors on the pocket on the right.
Seventh spread:
The right side has a wooden frame and flowers.
Back:
This isn't exactly the back, but it was in the box with the book. I love the background paper on this and the shaker as well.
I'm very happy that she made and sent me this one.
