I love the idea of adding a little pocket for love notes by Shawn Mazon. 

"add a little pocket to the back for little "lovie" notes. Chain 9, turn, sc in 2nd St from hook, sc in each until end 8sc. Ch1, turn sc in ech. Repeat until you get the size pocket you desire. I did 8 rows. Then I center it in the back and stitch it leaving the top open to form the pocket"
