Another Peek Inside My Snail Mail!

January Incoming Continued



This lovely snail mail came  all the way from Spain in a darling velum envelope.  I have a "thing" for velum envelopes.  I haven't sent any out lately, but...I'm inspired to dig out my velum envelope about you?



 Inside the velum envelope was this cheerful Snail Mail Folder.



I love the color scheme going on here. It's like orange zinger or something!  I just love it!  Great for those long, interminable, cold, grey,  sunless days.  It brought sunshine into my life, and certainly brought a smile to my face.




All of the little pockets held something sweet.  Tea, stickers, mail tag, washi tape samples, and my favorite, a Banana Cake Recipe.    Isn't that a homey thing to include in your snail mail?   Thank you Lucia for your cheerful, inspirational, sunny mail!  I will be busy at work on a reply today.

Let's get busy, especially if you are on the east coast...this might be our last day to be completely snowed-in.  Lets get some letters in the mail!

Happy Snail Mailing!

The Pressed Flower Project

Pressed flowers to add to your letter writing

 
I was shocked to see how paper thin the Hydrangeas became...so delicate and the color was retained so vibrantly.  I hope I can do more of these this year.


Bachelor Buttons are my absolute favorite wild flower...especially the pink ones.  Out here in the country we mainly have the blue ones.    I'm not sure what the little white flowers are, but they are so sweet!


Daffodil, crocus  


I usually place my pressed flowers inside the letter folded up, but I have tried this arrangement and rather like it.

This turned out nice with the gold doily and the gold wax seal,,,with a purple crocus.  It is so sweetly old fashioned, and just nostalgic.  I love the effect.


Write Letters,
Write Often.
