Outgoing Happy Mail

Ooooh, I enjoyed putting this happy mail together today 🙂

One is for someone who is isolating because of COVID and one is for a birthday across the pond. Sending happy mail helps keep me happy in these difficult times!

First Outgoing Mail of 2021

I’m giving myself variety by making round cornered postcards this year and looking out for some new images to share.

Two postcrossing cards off to Monika in Germany who likes unusual buildings and Demaris in USA who likes landscapes. Also a letter to my pen pal Natalie who lives in England.

I’m really looking forward to sharing mail with people across the world in 2021

The Joy of Christmas Mail

I was pleasantly surprised this year that we had twelve handmade Christmas cards. I so love handmade cards and always appreciate the time that goes into making them. Look at this wonderful selection that arrived in our post box for Christmas 2020 🙂

Beautiful Christmas Envelopes

My mail has been one of the things to keep me going this year, so thanks everybody for your great correspondence.

Here a a few super Christmas themed envelopes I’ve received. Joy in my mail box. I can’t wait to get into the rhythm of sending and receiving mail in 2021! 🙂

Little Owl Mail Art

I’ve had this little Owl block for quite a while and was inspired this week to make some mail art with it. I made postcards, ATC’s and faux postage stamps. Sometimes I really struggle for inspiration for mail art, so I was glad to create this array of work.

These are all ready to go, one could be dropping through your mail box very soon 🙂

Mail Going Out Today

Thursday is generally my mail day, so here is my outgoing mail.

A letter to Hanna in Sweden

and mail art for Richard in France.

Also I usually send two postcrossings per week and these are to Laura in Germany and Penny in the US, both cards I designed for our Active Fakenham Group.

Latest wonderful mail

Got these lovely letters a few days ago, what a bright start to the day!

Beautiful mail from Bonniediva with an invitation to make a collage with enclosed scraps

and a lovely letter from Abi with a nod to my love of cacti 🙂

Such Variety

Absolutely loving the variety of postcards I’ve been receiving, so many people take care to send cards on my wish list. Here are cards I’ve received recently from Slovakia, NL, Germany, USA, Poland, Russia, and Finland. Wow, it is rather amazing! 🙂

 

Today’s Mail

Wow, I come back from my socially distanced shopping and this is what was in my mail box! I haven’t had so much mail in one day before, apart from maybe on my birthday. Three from IHanna DIY postcard swap 2020, one from a mail art group I belong to and one letter. Thanks everyone for my happy mail day 🙂

Send Shutdown Mail

Thank you to everyone who has sent me mail at this strange time of shutdown and quarantine. I have be trying to send out more mail to make people smile and you’ve certainly done that for me.
here are some of the postcrossing cards I have received recently from UK Germany, Costa Rica, Indonesia and Finland. I am sure I have missed photographing some as I’ve been sending my own.
Do carry on sending if you can and bring a smile to some ones face 🙂
