As April lacks a 31st day, one can choose, as so desired, to mark the halfway point to Halloween on either April 30th or May 1st.
Personally, I lean towards April 30th, as it feels more natural to me to celebrate this exciting spot on the calendar at the end of the month, given that Halloween itself transpires on the final day of October.
Plus, I observe Beltane on May 1st, so my focus tends to be on that beautiful springtime Pagan sabbat come the inaugural day of the year’s fifth month.
Not, of course, that I mind combining secular and Pagan holidays together. I happily do so each year for Samhain + Halloween. 🥰
A number of years ago now (if not longer still), the term “Halfoween” (aka, Half-O-Ween) was coined so as to give the halfway mark until All Hallows’ Eve its own name.
Another very charming – and clever – title that I have seen used for the halfway point to Halloween is “Neewollah“. Aka, the word Halloween spelled backwards. How fun is that! 😊
Plenty of fellow #EverydayisHalloween souls have shared content online over the years pertaining to Half-O-Ween.
Here are but a few that have caught my eye:
-A great roundup of horror movies to watch at Halfoween from The Spooky Vegan
–Halfway to Halloween: 10 Ways to Celebrate the Unofficial Holiday from Mr. and Mrs. Halloween
–How to Celebrate Halfoween from Spooky Little Halloween
–Six More Ways to Celebrate Halfoween aka Half Way to Halloween from Mr. and Mrs. Halloween
With Halfoween rounding the bend again in a matter of days, it seemed like high time I made a papercrafting project to honour this delightful date – as well as to celebrate Springoween at the same time.
Springoween, as I detailed in my 2021 post, Sweetly Spooky Oversized Slimline Springoween Card (Plus, What is Springoween?), is an amalgamation of classic springtime elements (be they Easter/Ostara related or otherwise) and the dark, spooky, hair-raisingly marvellousness of Halloween.
If you are new to the concept of Springoween, pop by that post and get the 411 on this hauntingly fun way to embrace (and decorate for) spring.
(Lol! Who else remembers when the expression “Get the 411” was all the rage in the 1990s and early 2000s? 😄)
It struck me a few days ago that it had been a very, very long time since I last made a pocket letter.
If memory serves me right, we are talking 6+ years (it was unequivocally pre-arson fire).
At the time, pocket letters were wildly popular within the papercrafting world. Numerous groups and forum sections devoted to pocket letters were to be – and still are in some cases – found on various websites and social media platforms (i.e., Scrapbook.com and Facebook, respectively).
I fell in love with pocket letters at first sight, though only got a chance to make around three to four (sadly, no photos survive of them) before that fateful night back in October 2016.
Jump ahead to the present month and I suddenly got the BIGGEST urge to make a pocket letter again.
So that is precisely what I did, choosing to celebrate the concepts of both Halfoween and Springoween within the borders of nine wonderful little adjacent rectangles.
Cute Pastel Hued Happy Springoween Pocket Letter
Back in early 2019, I picked up a pack of Ultra Pro Platinum Series 9-Pocket Trading Card Pages, anticipating that sooner or later, I would make pocket letters again.
Some three years on from then, I finally got a chance to do just that and, OH MY WORD, let me tell you, I am completely and entirely in love with pocket letters!!! 💗
I recall very much enjoying the tiny number I made back around 2015. Creating one again this year was like connecting with the dearest of old friends.
Though the heyday of pocket letters may have passed somewhat, plenty of folks still like to make – and in some instances, swap – them or include a PL as part of some happy mail.
Count me amongst those ranks and prepare to see future pocket letters here now that I have rediscovered the joys of this wonderful form of paper crafting. 😃
In fact, I am already brainstorming a future post all about the ins and outs of pocket letter making.
Until then, however, for those who may be new to the concept, allow me to briefly go over what a pocket letter (usually) is.
Generally speaking, pocket letters begin with nine slot trading card sleeves (or you can make your own version using a fuse tool such as the Photo Sleeve Fuse Tool and Fusable Clear Sheets, both of which are from We R Memory Keepers).
One then creates pieces of cardstock, paper, etc – often with some embellishments swirled into the mix – and tucks them into the front of each of those pockets.
If sending the pocket letter off in the mail or otherwise presenting it to someone else, many people opt to include small gifts on the backside of the nine slots (and sometimes on the front as well).
Examples of these gifts that fit the bill well include such things as washi tape samples, sequins mixes, flatback charms/cabochons, beads, die cuts, stickers, tea bags, and candies – amongst scores of other possibilities.
You can decorate both the inside and outside of the slots on your pocket letter, as desired. I have placed elements both inside and out on the pocket letter highlighted in this post.
Much as with just about all forms of papercrafting, the sky is the limit in terms of how to make pocket letters. Let your creativity run wild when whipping up a multi-slot PL!
Being a huge fan of cohesiveness, I usually pick a general theme and corresponding colour palette for my pocket letters.
In this case, the theme was Springoween + Halfoween and the colour palette was a classic mix of springtime pastels coupled with white, black, and hints of metallic gold throughout.
Tending to favour fall tones and dark colours, I wouldn’t say I have a ton of pastels or springtime themed items in my stash. However, as soon as I hit on the theme + hues for this darling Springoween pocket letter, I knew that I had only to reach for some of Prima’s Halloween offerings to score the aesthetic I was after.
Given the widespread popularity (especially in recent years) of what is sometimes dubbed Pasteloween (aka, utilizing a pastel colour scheme to decorate, craft, etc for October 31st), I picked up some of the papers from Prima’s Thirty One Collection line a while back and was extra glad I did as it proved to be a great option for this particular pocket letter. 😃
While I did feel a bit rusty on the pocket letter making front, happily and thankfully, it didn’t take long for me to find my grove as I went about creating this project.
I have no doubt that the classic “it’s like riding a bicycle” quality of reconnecting with something you have engaged in doing previously will deepen all the more with each fresh PL I create from here on out.
Theme and colour palette sorted, I set about rummaging through my stash for a bevy of suitable embellishments and trims to partner with these (mostly) pale hues.
Pocket letters are an awesome way to utilize a wide array of those kinds of materials – as well as to potentially use up paper/cardstock scraps and do some stash busting in the process.
Once I had everything gathered, I took my time and composed the various rectangles and exterior embellishments of my pocket letter. After I was pleased with the look, I set about adhering everything together and making a few more design tweaks along the way.
Humbly, I am tickled (pastel) pink with how this adorable Springoween pocket letter turned out and have already started pulling out items to make my second pocket letter of 2022 in the not-too-distant future.
It will be a gift for a dear friend and while it is spring/summer inspired, that one is not going to be Springoween or Summerween themed pocket letter – though it is a safe bet to say that I will very likely make more of those as time goes on. 😊

How to make a super fun pocket letter for Springoween (or Halfoween)
While I usually provide detailed step-by-step instructions for most of the papercrafting projects that I post here, this time around I am not going to break things down to that degree.
Many pocket letters are, in my opinion, quite easy to dissect, so to speak, just by looking at them. I feel that statement applies in the case of this hauntingly fun Springoween pocket letter.
Instead, I will mention a bit more about its design coupled with some general advice regarding making pocket letters.
(That said, if you have any questions pertaining to how to make this exact PL that are not covered here please do not hesitate to ask them in the comments below or via the email contact form located on the header bar of this blog.)
To make cutting out the correct size of cardstock/paper/thin chipboard/felt/etc for each slot of your pocket letters, I suggest you measure the dimensions of each slot/pocket (in most types of playing card holders, these slots will be uniformly sized) and then make a reusable template based on those measurements.
I did that prior to putting together the specific aspects of this Springoween pocket letter, opting to use some medium-weight chipboard to create one template the length and width of three pockets and another the length and width of a single pocket.
Now, anytime I want to make a pocket letter using the specific card holder sheets that I currently have on hand, I need only trace the outline of these templates on my desired material, cut them out, and I’m good to go.
I have labelled my templates and placed them mere inches away from my crafting desk (it is a small desk without any drawers, therefore most of my craft stash is stationed elsewhere in that similarly wee room).
So easy and so handy! 😃
If you regularly work with the same size pieces for any of your crafting applications, I highly recommend making reusable templates.
When making a pocket letter, keep in mind that the see-through pockets themselves are not usually very roomy from front to back. This means that there is a definite cap on the types of embellishments (and number of layers, etc) that you can fit into a given pocket.
If you wish to include larger/more 3D embellishments, it generally works best to attach them to the outside, not the inside of your pockets.
While the standard pocket letter size is three rows by three rows, I have seen other sizes over the years as well.
These include “mini pocket letters”, which are commonly between 3 – 6 pockets in total size (often cut down from a 3-row x 3-row playing card holder sheet), Project Life type pages with various numbers and sizes of slots, and other configurations created by either sewing or creating slots with a fuse tool.
If you want to shake things up, don’t be afraid to experiment with different sizes. You could also attach two or more nine-slot card holder sheets together and create a mega pocket letter!
Or, leave them separate but carry the same theme/colours across two or more pages for another form of extra-large pocket letter.
When making pocket letters, it is common to attach or thread things such as ribbon, twine, lace, seam binding, tulle, string, charms, and washi tape to one or more of the (three) holes on the left-hand side of the page protector.
This can jazz up your pocket letter further, while also helping to tie your design together to an even greater degree.
If you – or your recipient – are likely to store the pocket letter that you have created in a binder, duo-tang folder, or scrapbook album, it is usually best to either make those components easy to remove or to leave enough space in the holes for them to still be able to accommodate binder rings and the like.
Though that said, technically, one could store the most common sizes of pocket letters in a 12 x 12-inch scrapbook album with corresponding 12 x 12-inch page protectors.
Whether you will be tucking gifts, letters, etc or not into the back of your PL, it can be a really lovely touch to ensure the backside of your pocket letter is attractive looking as well.
You may wish to repeat some of the same papers/cardstocks used on the front sans most (or all) embellishments. Or you can opt to use a single colour of a paper/cardstock.
There really are no rules, so as with the front side of your pocket letter, let your imagination soar and have a blast while creating this fabulous type of paper crafting project. 😃
Happiest Halfoween wishes!
As returning readers may likely have guessed, this festive Springoween pocket letter is my #MakeHalloween365 project for the month of April 2022.
As always, I encourage you to use this hashtag anytime you share a Halloween-related creative project of any kind online (be it papercrafting related or otherwise). It can be on your blog, website, or social media – anywhere a hashtag comes into play, have at ‘er! 😊
When it comes to those of us who live for Halloween – or who otherwise adore this most spooky of holidays – there is something powerfully exciting about reaching the point in the year from which, for the next six months onward, we will be closer to our beloved October 31st than further away from it.
Springoween strives to imbue springtime as a whole with a hair-raisingly delightful sense of Halloween’s mysterious spirit.
Halfoween, is a single day (or two – should one want to celebrate it on both April 30th and May 1st). A pivotal point on the calendar that propels us into that very six-month countdown.
Even if we have no desire for the next half a year to whiz by faster than a flock of bats flying against a harvest moon-filled sky, for Halloweenoholics, we cannot help but cross off the days until October returns.
Growing all the more gleeful that with each fresh sunrise – or, perhaps more aptly for the darkly inclined, each fresh sunset – at that very prospect.
If you are jonesing for plenty of inspiration and ideas to help inject even more Halloween happiness into your days the whole year through, may I suggest my roundup of 31 Ways to Celebrate Halloween All Year Long as well as the following selection of my Pinterest boards?
As usual here, expect to see plenty of Halloween related craft projects from me in the coming half a year (and beyond, natch! 😊), as well as other posts pertaining to my – and many peoples’ – most cherished holiday.
Right here and now though, as we head towards May and the return of Halfoween, know that I am wishing you the happiest of Halloween countdowns and a safe, enjoyable, creativity-filled second half of the (Halloween-based) year.
Do you take note of Halfoween? If you have done so before, when was the last time you created a pocket letter of your own? 🗓️🖤🎃
Oh this tickles me to see Autumn!! I’m so in love with your Spring-o-Ween pocket letter! The pastel colors and your little ribbon bows, texture, buttons and clothes pens make this an interactive element as well! That little ghost has me smiling! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration of my fave holiday! 😉
What an awesomely kind and supportive commend, sweet Vicki. Thank boo (you :D) very much!
There are scarcely words enough to describe how much I adored creating a pocket letter again. I am definitely riding a wave of renewed passion for this delightful form of paper crafting and hope to share many more PLs here in the months and years to come.
You are super welcome! I am tickled pink (and orange and black :D) to know that you found this charming project inspiring. That is really one of the best things we paper crafters can ever hear about our work.
Big hugs & the happiest of Halloween countdown wishes,
🖤 Autumn
Happy Springoween Autumn! This piece is adorable in such a spooky cute way! I love to see this holiday being celebrated more and more. It makes my spooky heart happy.
Thank you SO much, dear Chantal. You are as kind as springtime is beautiful.
Definitely! The more year-round Halloween inspired/influenced goodness (and spookiness!) the better in my books, too.
It’s hard to believe that as I type these words, we are less than a month away from the start of the next season and, in turn, Summerween. I have some super fun ideas in mind for Summerween craft projects this year, so hopefully at least one or two of them can come into being this year.
Many thanks again, my lovely friend. I hope that you have a wonderful tail end of May and a fabulous June.
🖤 Autumn
Oh my gosh, what a cool pocket letter this is, Autumn! I love LOVE the colours and the spooky elements – this really appeals to me. Happy Springoween!
Thank you big time, my very dear friend. Pastels are not often my first colour palette choice (nothing against them, of course, I just tend to favour darker and/or earthier, autumnal shades). However, when the spirit of Halloween enters the picture, suddenly I find working with them easier and all the more enjoyable, too.
Plus, I can’t help thinking that this particular colour combo would make for an awesome ensemble (and that no one could do it justice better than you).
Happy Springoween to you as well, sweet Sheila. May these final weeks of the season smile warmly on you and bring no shortage of wonderful moments your way.
🖤 Autumn
I have to confess that I’d never heard of Pocket Letters, so thank you for the introduction and explanation. They do look fun to make. The Springoween one you made is gorgeous! I’m loving mix of the autumnal Halloween theme with the Springlike pastels! xxx
You are wholeheartedly welcome, dear Ann. It is my absolute pleasure to be able to introduce you to pocket letters.
Another point to raise about them is that, objectively, just about anyone who wishes to make a pocket letter can do so. You do not have to be a dedicated paper crafter by any means.
So long as one has a few suitable materials to hand (and, though not strictly necessary, a divided trading card sleeve or similar clear protective item to house their “PL” in), a pocket letter can be whipped up and either saved for your own handmade craft collection or given to someone special.
I had a blast creating this PL and am already planning others for later in this year (and beyond). If there is ever a theme or two you think would suit this type of paper crafting project well, please do not hesitate to let me know. I love getting inspiring ideas from my online friends.
Sunny hugs & the happiest of May-into-June wishes,
🖤 Autumn
This is a gorgeous project! I don’t really celebrate Half-o-ween as we all know every day is Halloween, haha!
ABSOLUTELY!!! So true, so very, very true. 🙌🙌🙌
Still, it never hurts, I find, to make note of that absolutely glorious point in the calendar when we are closer to All Hallows’ Eve than we are further away from it. The more reasons to celebrate Halloween’s upcoming return, the merrier (and spookier) in my books. 😊
I hope that you have a stellar countdown to our beloved holiday and that Halloween 2022 proves to be one of your most enjoyable ever.
🖤 Autumn
What a fabulous pocket card! I like the shaker in the middle, the cute little ghost and that pink pumpkin, along with all the rest!
Fabulous to see the pastel and pretty feminine embellishments in your Springoween project Autumn,it puts a totally different take on looking at many of these images as only for Halloween
What a terrific compliment, Meg. Thank you so much!!! 🧡
To my mind, there are no limits when it comes to the colour palettes that can be utilized in a Halloween (or Halloween-inspired) setting.
Weaving pastels into this springtime take on the spooky season is always a blast and a great way to connect with shades that I don’t tend to reach for all that often at other points in the year.
Many thanks again, lovely lady. I hope that your spring is going positively and that the last few weeks of the season will bring you an abundance of happiness.
🖤 Autumn
I’ve been catching up on your blog posts, and out of all the things you made in the meantime, this has to be the loveliest!
You are sweeter than Easter and Halloween candy combined, Donna. Thank you very much for your wonderfully kind words about this fun Springoween pocket letter.
I can scarcely believe that there is less than a month left in the current season. Beyond it lies Summerween and, in turn, the ideal opportunity to whip up some spooky projects for the year’s warmest chapter as well. 😃
Wishing you a relaxing, gorgeous May-into-June, my friend.
🖤 Autumn
Autumn, your pocket page celebrating Springoween is delightful! Love all of the fun and fabulous elements you added and how fun and whimsical it is!
You flatter me something fierce, dear Celeste. Thank you very much for your glowing feedback about this delightfully fun pocket letter.
I had an absolute blast putting it together and am on quite the PL kick now, so you can pretty much bank on others coming down the pipeline this year (and beyond).
Big hugs & the loveliest of May-into-June wishes,
🖤 Autumn
I’ve never made a pocket letter but what a great project this is! Each little pocket is a treat for the eyes, and you even added a shaker element too! This is amazing and filled with such great details – pure eye candy!
Happy Springoween to you, and I am going to leave all the horror movie watching to you my friend – I cannot bear to watch any of them! LOL Have an amazing week ahead!
Aww, thank you SO very much, dear Carol. It warms my heart and fuels my creativity all the more to receive such positive feedback.
Interestingly, I myself am not the biggest horror movie fan ever by any means. I don’t mind some of the classics (and really enjoy the campier ones such the various “Abbot and Costello Meet… “), but a lot of the more modern horror flicks are far too scary/gory for me personally.
I’m much more of a Hocus Pocus, Addams Family, Ghostbusters, and It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown kind of Halloween film lover. 😊
Many heartfelt thanks again. I hope that your month is going great and that it will soon blossom into a sunny, fantastic June.
Big hugs,
🖤 Autumn
Your Springween pocket letter is beautiful. I love how you used pink tones to denote Spring but still kept your signature Halloween aesthetic. You’re so creative.
That is like praise from Caesar, dear Ivana. Thank you immensely, my (likewise) fabulously creative friend. 💖
And a very big thanks as well for each and every one of your blog comments this spring. I think of you often and truly hope that 2022 is proving to be at least a moderately better year for you on the health front (alas, it definitely is not for me as of yet, which is almost entirely why I continue to be online so little these days).
From my heart to yours, thank you so much again! 😘
Sunny hugs,
🖤 Autumn
Happy Springoween to you, I do hope you enjoy the day tomorrow . Your pocket letter project is fabulous, so much thought and effort has clearly gone into the making of it. I love the mix of traditional halloween colours and pastel spring colours, they work very well together. It is a very special person who will receive this and I am sure they will treasure it. I have never made one myself yet. Maybe one day, you never know xx
Thank you immensely, my dear friend – both for your blush-inducingly lovely words about this festive Springoween pocket letter and for wishing me a happy Halfoween.
Excitingly, we are now scarcely more than five months away from the return of All Hallows’ Eve. It’s all I can do not to don a costume and go sit by the door with a huge bowl brimming over with candy right now at the more thought! 😊
Pocker letters are a blast!!! I enjoyed the small number of them I made a few years back, but feel as though I have fallen in love with this type of paper crafting project all the more care of this Springoween PL.
As such, expect to see more pocket letters coming down the pipeline here this year (and beyond). 😃
If you should decide to venture down this path as well and are ever interested in doing a PL swap, please do not hesitate to let me know. I would be elated to engage in one with you, Hilary.
Joyful May-into-June wishes from my heart to yours,
🖤 Autumn
Autumn, I don’t think I have heard of Half-o-Ween before- but I like the idea. And, like you, I am already counting the days/months til Halloween!
This is the cutest project to honor this special marking of time.
Only five months to go…..
Debi
It really is fa-boo-lously exciting that less than half of the calendar now sits between us and our beloved All Hallows’ Eve (and fall as a whole).
Halfoween really is a charming idea and a marvellous way to psyche one up all the more as we embrace the countdown to this most enchantingly spooky of special occasions.
May the next few months be ones of serenity, wellness, and tons of moments that make your heart smile, my dear friend. 💖
🖤 Autumn
This is a stunning creation! Love the colours and the different techniques you used. Have a great week.
Thank you very much on all counts, dear Anesha. 💖
Creating my first PL in over half a decade has sparked a massive renewal in my passion for them! As a result, it is safe to say that you can bank on seeing further pocket letters appear here this year (and beyond). 😃
Wishing you a sunny, beautiful, and very happy May-into-June.
🖤 Autumn
Happy Halfoween, my sweet friend! My heart always smiles at the way you find ways to celebrate your favourite day throughout the year.
Your pocket letters are adorable! What a fun twist on your images to see them in pastels. Such a delightful combination of spook and sweetness!
You flatter me something fierce, Kate! Thank you for the tremendously kind and supportive feedback about this festive Springoween pocket letter. 💖
I must say, reconnecting with (making) PLs again for the first time in more than half a decade rekindled my passion for them something fierce!
As such, it’s safe to say that others will follow this year (and beyond) – especially since I have ideas for literally dozens of them zipping around in my head at the moment.
Should you ever wish to do a PL swap together, please do not hesitate to let me know. I would utterly adore doing so with you, my dear friend.
Many thanks again coupled with the happiest wishes for a fantastic remainder of the Springoween season.
🖤 Autumn
Funny how much pink becomes spiders! 😉 And I didn’t know pink and orange would be good together, but as usual what comes from your hands is tasteful and talented art. Halfway there, hang on, dear ghoul. ♥
You make me blush deeper than the harvest moon, dear Sanna. Thank you for your truly touching and supportive compliments.
As I type these words, we are closer to (just) five months to go until our beloved October 31st returns. Naturally, I can scarcely wait and know you feel the same way, too.
Happily, there are scores of festive projects to make and myriad other ways to help us gear up all the more between then and now.
Which reminds me, (in all seriousness) I need to start giving some major thought to my costume for this year. As per usual, I have a mile-long list, so will need to whittle it down and hit upon my final choice sometimes during the summer or early fall. 😊
Really, thank you again. Connecting and bonding all the more care of our mutual passion for the spooky season is one of my very favourite elements of the wonderful friendship we share. 💕
Huge hugs & the happiest of Halloween countdowns,
🖤 Autumn
I’ve never heard or seen a letter pocket, but this looks incredible. So much work. And another cool way to celebrate your favourite holiday.
I want to thank you for visiting my blog and leaving encouraging comments. So sorry it’s taken me so long to visit your blog. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your weekend.
Thank you deeply on all counts, dear Trina. 💖🌹😘
You are so very welcome! I adore – and am continually inspired by – your gorgeous, super creative work.
Pocket letters are such a cool invention. Creating my first one in over half a decade has (massively!) sparked a renewed interest in them and I now have literally dozens of ideas for potential future PLs floating around in the ol’ noggin at the moment.
As such, it is safe to say that further pocket letters will very likely appear here this year and well beyond.
If you are keen to give making PLs a try yourself and would ever like to swap them with me, I would be delighted to do so (you can reach me anytime via the contact form at the top of my blog).
Many appreciative thanks again. It is always a pleasure to connect with you. 🥰
Sunny hugs,
🖤 Autumn
