Hi, Crate Paper fans! It’s Bea here with my very first project using the ah-dorable Magical Forest collection! To be honest, I couldn’t be more excited about this collection! The papers are so bright and fun, and it’s made for feminine and masculine layouts! This is perfect for me since we have three boys and a girl! I love these type of collections. But there are other fun ways you could use them too. This time, I decided to create a home decoration which is perfectly usable as an organizer.
Do you remember the ‘Snail Mail’ pockets we sent to our creative friends to brighten their days? They were such popular projects and I loved to create them. This time I was inspired by those tiny packages, I just altered the pockets and enlarged the base to fit to the empty space on my daughter’s wall.
I started my project by cutting out the big heart base and the two pockets from patterned paper. I wanted to be sure that the pockets are strong enough to hold notebooks and journals, so I adhered the heart to a heavy cardstock base and stitched fabric pieces to the back of the pockets.
Next I machine stitched the pockets to the heart base, and added a ribbon to the top.
Magical Forest collection is jam packed with adorable stickers, and I couldn’t resist to add that pretty girl sticker to the bottom of the heart. I then arranged the ‘Let’s Play’ title above the girl using the beautiful gold Alphabet stickers from the collection.
I filled the pockets with tiny envelopes, mini albums, notebooks, and cards to inspire my daughter to get creative and play!

This is one of the cutest things I have seen...maybe ever! I would love to hang this in my craft room. Maybe place some extra special supplies in it (cute tags, products that I might use together, little envelopes like you showed. NICE
