Halloween Mail Art: Mini Pocket Letters

I used Lawn Fawn stamps for the ghost and pumpkins, and I used pinking shears and crepe paper for the fringe.
Has it really only been six months since Halloween? It feels like forever. Maybe that's because I attempt to live in a perpetual state of spook. I'm the kid that grew up but didn't grow out of her goth phase. This shows up both in my almost exclusively black wardrobe and my crafting.


I really enjoy doing these fast little mini pocket letters. You can use your nice supplies without using them up (My name is Batty, and I'm a craft hoarder.), and you still get a cute result. This one went out to my penpal. These stamps are from Michael's Halloween line in 2018. They're pretty decent even if they didn't come with a die set. When I first started using stamps, I thought die sets were a waste of money. Now that I've cut out approximately a billion stamped images, I have changed my mind.


Sorry for the blurry image. I made a mini pocket letter set for download in my now defunct Etsy store with quotes from Dracula. This is one of my favorite mini pocket letters from this last year. It's grown up and elegantly spooky. I love the cutesy ghosts and batses with little fangses, but sometimes I want something elegant. The lace on the edge is washi tape. How cool is that? If anyone is interested, I might offer this Dracula pocket letter set as a free download.
