Snail mail Themes
Did you know that August 3rd was National Watermelon Day? We eat LOTS of watermelon around here...so yummy! Its the quintessential summer food, right? I found out about this national day of celebration a bit late, but decided to get some Watermelon mail sent out anyway! So out came my watercolors and envelopes! I ended up making 2 envelopes and one postcard. Fun...yummy delicious mail!
I like to use graph paper to write my letters . Have you ever tried thought of that? It gives your letter a nice , loose, casual fee. Decorate with washi tape and doodles with your jelly markers. Haha...how do I possibly NOT have any watermelon washi tape? Impossible, but true! This letter is going to a new pen pal in the state of Oregon. So Beth...be on the look out! ;-)

Lucky Beth! I've never thought of graph paper but how sensible. I have, though, thought of Rhodia Dot paper and maybe even wrote a letter or two on it once upon a time. Dots or grids save the trouble of guidelines which can be difficult to see but dolled up with washi, grid paper takes on a whole new playful look. What a great way to make your own personalized stationery!
