Letter Writing Sets

I’m happy to be making and sending out two of my handmade letter writing sets that are available in my shop. I love making them as much as I do using them myself so it’s extra special when someone likes them enough to buy them.

Outgoing Order From My Shop

I’m excited to be sending out these lovely products from my new shop. The lovely Nancy has become a regular customer in the short time it has been open.

She has ordered a colouring book containing my own drawings and has stocked up on some faux postage stamps which I have loved making for so long. Go take a look and see my art and mail related goodies, you might just find something you like! debbieosbornartshop with free p&p!

The coronation of King Charles III

I have created some faux postage to commemorate the coronation of King Charles III to send out on my mail during the month of May. I can’t say I’m a royalist, but I do resect our Royal Family and what they stand for.

I have used a crown design that I produced previously, just because I like it and am happy with how the stamps have turned out. I am also pleased to have finally worked out how to get the perforations in the right place!

Colourful Mail

Colourful mail leaving my house the last few days. Mixed Postcrossing postcards, pen pals and mailart.

I’m very happy to be sending out such a mixture of mail and knowing such lovely people to send my mail to. I always have my thinking cap on so that I can encourage, bless or make people laugh.

Postage Stamp Perforator

Wow, at last, a proper perforator! I am so pleased with this purchase. It can only perforate up to 15cm but I’m still so happy 🙂 I had designed these stamps celebrating the women’s Euros in anticipation of my parcel.

Bought from workshopHarlamov on Etsy, handmade in the Ukraine.

Colourful Mail

I’ve been enjoying submerging myself in colourful mail. This included using these wonderful Sci-Fi postage stamps,

receiving three more handmade art postcards from the IHanna postcard swap, from Susa, Patsy and Angela all from the USA,

and sending out letters using my personally designed Stationery, which I absolutely love designing and using!

I’ve also had a sort out of my own handmade faux postage stamps. I’m absolutely addicted to making these!

Happy mail, all week long, see you soon! 🙂

IHanna Spring 2022 Postcard Swap

It’s that time again and I’m loving it. I do enjoy the Ihanna swaps. This time I have based my art on a scripture from Micah, “Act Justly, love mercy, walk humbly”, anyone can use this as a guide to follow in life. It can act as an inspiration to anyone regardless of faith, so I thought I would share it through my art. A total of 10 postcards being sent out with lots of love 🙂

Last mailings for 2021

Sending out a mixed bunch of happy mail on the penultimate day of 2021.

Postcrossing cards across the globe to USA, Germany, Austria and Russia. I am looking forward to more postcrossings in 2022 as I have been postcrossing for a full ten Years 🙂

These are my last letters of 2021 to Daniela in Italy and for Susanne in Germany and also a mail art postcard to Jim in the UK.

May all the recipients be filled with joy!
