August Outgoing Mail

More outgoing mail for August.

Postcards going out to Yuzu in Taiwan and Frederike in Germany. Frederike asked for a bird postcard so I am sending a postcard with a photo that my husband took of a Rook.

I’m also sending return mail to Susan in the USA. What beautiful stamps she had stuck on my letter! I have written to her on my Echinacea design writing paper.

Out Going Mail

I’ve been super busy with unpacking after moving but still able to make a little mail. I’ve also been notified by Postcrossing that I’ve been a member for 12 years, wow!

Two letters going out to my penpals in Giovinazzo and Palazzolo in Italy.

Plus two postcrossing cards with images of Fakenham, going to Ota in Czech Rep. and Mariela in Germany. The Stamps are the first definatives to be released with the Kings head on them, and I’ve also added on both some of my own faux postage.

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

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 🙂

It’s International Correspondence Letter Writing Month again. Although I write letters all year round and may not take up the challenge of writing a letter every day. It’s an opportunity to meet new people through mail and possible top up on regular pen pals. So I’m including old and new in my letter writing this month.

Sherry in USA and Sarah, UK.

Natalie in the UK and Chantelle in Ireland.

Only four so far but they are filled will love and best wishes for the recipients!
