Snail Mail in the NEXT GENERATION!

We can teach them...

And they can teach us a thing or two!

I have received some mail lately from some of my campers that were in my cabin.  I love to post what they have been up to in their very crafty styles.    Here is an envelope crafted by Ella, and I love that she used her wax seal that she got for her birthday!  

Lovely Ella!

And just like a seasoned snail mailer, she included a nice chatty letter and some goodies.

This letter is from Miss Grace!  She made a lovely watercolor impressionistic  sunset...I love this!

Grace attended my paper crafting class at camp, She included a craft that I taught this summer..."Flying Letters".  I need to do a blog post on these...they are adorable!

Here it is , gently unfolded.  But look!  She included a mini envelope  (which she made) inside the  one of the folds.  Nice touch, very nice--Grace!

So cute... a little letter is enclosed.  

I am so impressed at the creativity of young people today.  I have letters going out to Ella and Grace.  I am so sorry it took me so long to get back to writing  to everyone.  Thanks for your patience!

Let's get the younger generation writing and sending letters too,

Ahoy There!

Sending out thank yous...

With a wave of events...Mother's Day...my birthday...my anniversary...well, I had a bit of Thank YOU mail to send out!  The cute nautical themed cards were part of a gift from a dear pen pal who hails from the state of Massachusetts.  The quality of the cards...oh my, so amazing.  thick, white, creamy envelopes and the cards were dimensional--so much detail! 

After I got to work on these, it's like most anything.  Once you get started, you just sort of get involved.  I enjoyed writing my "mini letters"  in these note cards.    I kept the envelopes fairly simple.

I kept the  red, white and blue theme going with my wax.

And if they didn't feel thanked enough  from what was IN the card, I made sure they were on the Out side of the card as well.  I love this stamp, it says it plain and simple!

What about you?  Do you have any "thank you " cards that need to be written?  Take the opportunity to do so, and include a bit more about what is going on in your life!

Write Letters.

Write Often.

Waxing Eloquent!

The Joys of Wax Seals...

Here is my current collection.

The Victorian Boot...

Homing pigeon carrying a letter...

The quill pen and ink well...

One of my heart seals...

This seal comes in handy for sending out my "thank you's".  This particular wax got pretty sooty...I have heard there is a way to keep the soot from contaminating your wax...I just have never gotten hold of the secret!  Does anyone care to enlighten me?  

Write Letters,

Write Often.
