Outgoing mail to China! I recently got these vintage style postcards and plastic postal envelopes. I hope Stellar and Lemon enjoy this happy mail. I had fun writing and decorating these ones 🙂

Outgoing letters
A letter for Mengyao in China and one for Laura in South Korea!
New washi tape!
Can’t wait to decorate some new envelopes with this tape.
To all the washi-tape lovers out there…
How do you use washi?? Any DIY ideas?
Outgoing mail
Today’s outgoing mail! Some letters going out to Tamara, Marlene and Carmen… a postcard to Melissa and little packages to Tomomi and Jessica. 
Outgoing mail to Skiye & Ayako
Earlier this month I posted about some DIY envelopes that I made. They are super easy to fold and a cute way to send some happy mail! These letters are going out to Skiye and Ayako! Hope you enjoy receiving them as much as I loved getting them ready to send to you 😉
Square magazine envelopes
Made some square envelopes from a tourist magazine. I love the colours! I’ll use some for my next set of outgoing letters. Send a comment if you’re interested in receiving one!
Upcycle Project – An Outdated Calendar
Moving means tossing out lots of old junk, but it’s also exciting to find old stuff and use it again… in a different way. One person’s trash is another person’s treasure! I used an old calendar to make some note cards and envelopes.
Wedding Invitation Samples from THE CARD
Check out this amazing sample pack we received in the mail. Kiuk and I decided to order invitations from Korea since they are generally less expensive than in Canada. I found this website where they sell wedding invitations (or 웨딩카드) called THE CARD.
I searched for some cards that I liked and a few days later this came in the mail!
They were really good quality… I’m not surprised 🙂
Here are some of my favourites.
And who doesn’t love these cute food coupons? I didn’t even know what these were for until I attended a wedding last weekend. After giving your monetary gift and signing your name, a friend of the bride or groom who sits at a desk and collects the money will hand you a food coupon. After the short ceremony, you’ll redeem it for a meal (usually buffet).
We will need these for our Korean traditional ceremony and I really love the ones of the bride and groom wearing their hanboks! There are so many things to do before the big day!!
A great surprise from Gabrielle
Last week I received this letter from Gabrielle out west. She decorates each envelope so beautifully. The paper used is so delicate and her handwriting is exquisite. She also enclosed this old book card. Those born pre 90s will remember that we had to write our names on this card to sign each book out. Surprisingly, my younger friend had no idea what this was. Thank you Gabrielle, for your letter… But also for bringing back old memories with this extra gift!
Hand crafted Envelope from the UK
Every so often i’m totally blown away by how artistic and crafty some pen pals are! Debbie sent a letter in this beautifully hand printed envelope. It’s gorgeous 🙂
