Easter Pocket Letter Swap

I really enjoyed making this Easter themed Pocket Letter.

The tree is a simple punch art tree and I will be uploading a video tutorial for it shortly.  I will edit and add the link once it has uploaded, depending on internet upload speed it should be up within the week, so please check back and watch it if you wish.
I was careful when adhering the circles that they didn't prevent accessing the pockets.
I cut the tree trunk after adhering it at the opening of the pocket so items in the pocket could still be accessed.
The hillside is torn green cardstock, the grass is the same green cardstock as the tree leaves and the hillside, I die cut it with a Cuttlebug  Grass Die, the leftover cardstock I cut in some grassy shapes between the sections of die cuts to get a longer piece for the bottom.  I coloured the grass with a lettuce paint dabber, I also used this paint dabber to edge the tree leaves.
The tree leaves, hillside and grass used only 1 sheet of cardstock.





 In the back of each pocket I used paper scraps to decorate and added various Easter themed items or items in a similar colour scheme. 
This tea was the perfect colour.
The shaker pocket is a single collector card card pocket sealed with Washi so if Megan wishes to use the bits she can open it and use them.
These sticky notes were the perfect colour to add in, I trimmed them down with my 12 inch trimmer so they would fit.
 Here is the Easter Pocket Letter I received.  I love all the extra bits included, they will be very handy for Easter next year and various craft projects.
I am going to use the Bookmark in my Textbook to give me something cheerful to look at.
Unfortunately part of the fence came off in transport, I just found it when sorting the supplies.
