Happy Wednesday, all! (It’s almost Thursday–lol!). Today I have a couple mail art envelope designs for you. When I saw the Floral Corners and Floral Spray stamps from Stacey Yacula over at Purple Onion Designs, I knew they were begging to be used on envelopes! They’re perfect for use with floral postage stamps, too! (Wondering
The July Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp is being unveiled today, and I have 2 cards for you using the stamps, papers, and fun stickers in it! For this first card I used a combination of the stamps and the papers. The prints on the papers are all very small scale, so they're perfect to stamp these envelopes on! I used the Simon full-sized Lipstick Red ink along with my own navy ink to stamp the sentiment, hearts, and the fun stripe, which I did in 2 steps, first stamping it in red, then reinking in navy and moving it slightly to the right for the 2nd stamping. And here I used 2 of the fun puffy stickers included in the kit, and lots of the papers again. Just 1 stamp here, the hello circle, again stamped in Lipstick Red. As always, there are so many elements I haven't even touched yet! There's a red chevron washi tape, red gem stars, and as always, some cardstock to match the papers from Pink Paislee's Pen Pal collection. Here's the kit, called "Sending Happy Mail".
The Full Of Love Stamp Set has wonderful images of flowers and envelopes. This is a perfect set for card makers, because we love sending cards in envelopes! Because it's Fall, for today's
The card - an old script stamp on the side, flower stamp is from SU and sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. 'Grandma time' today, Friday night crafting tonight. That's it. Have a wonderful day!

This suite of mail-art envelopes was inspired by former blogger Natalie Holbrook's 2015 book, Hey Natalie Jean . In the book, she is unabashedly proud of her role as "Queen of her home," championing the kind of feminist mantra that says feminism is about choice. Natalie has a choice and

this was on pinterest with no way of tracing origin. it is an altered book cover -turned into a postcard. altered book covers are where you take a book cover and alter it. i guess that's obvious. the *wait for the postman* lettering is what is added. the postage and address is on the flip side. it cracked me up. so, i decided to stick it in with an actual envelope. i ignored the graceful envelope contest this year. just too busy. but this one from some other year is fun. kathy barker is the artist. she did a good job of layering the stamps and the border. can't wait to find out if jeri hobart gets in again. she's been uber successful with her entries. i don't even remember what the theme was this year.
Please use the 'Translate' button in the left sidebar to translate the post to English or another language. Thank you for visiting my blog! Welkom op deze zondag!! Met een nieuwe post over de nieuwe challenge bij Dutch Card Lovers! Na de Kerstvakantie-stop beginnen we vandaag weer! Deze challenge is bedacht door Marjan, klik HIER om naar het blog te gaan. De challenge is (kopie): Maak een kaart met drie paneeltjes waar je een tafereeltje op maakt. De vorm van het paneeltje mag je natuurlijk zelf bepalen. Maar... LET OP ...je snijdt of stanst of stencilt zelf de paneeltjes en het is niet de bedoeling een kaart te maken met een voorgestanst paneel, zoals een vakjeskaart. Dit is mijn voorbeeldkaartje: En ja, ik weet het, alweer dezelfde bundel en stansen... Sending Love! Deze kaart heb ik een maand geleden al gemaakt, dus het kwam toevallig net zo uit met de vorige post. Maar zo heb je meteen nog een voorbeeldje :) Ik gebruikte de Perennial Postage stansen om de paneeltjes te maken.. Het DSP is het Sale-a-Bration papier 'Sunny Days' wat je kunt uitzoeken bij een bestelling van 60 euro. Het is echt heel leuk! Je ziet onderaan alle gebruikte producten. Dat was het voor vandaag!

i was surfing and saw this easy tutorial on drawing this tim burton character so i tried it. i think i forgot to finish the eyes. this was one that was giving me fits because i let the stamps go until the end. but, i sorta like the james beard stamp. the bald heads are enough of a tie in for me. funny...i never came up with any good ideas for the chef stamps...then when i find myself in a bind, the ones that didn't inspire me end up saving me. thank you stamps. time to work on my ...i am thankful for...envelopes for november (i am writing this in oct, scheduling envelopes ahead) ****** it is now dec 2nd and i am adding labels to my previously scheduled posts. i worked really hard on an idea that i loved - for the thankful-theme - for the nov exchange. eventually, i decided to save it for next year and started working on december ideas. hopefully, i can shift things around so that i have ideas that pop up earlier in each season. **************** exchangers: please let Jan know if you did not receive all your envelopes for the November exchange. I am missing a couple. if you are late sending your envelopes, please let Jan know that they are going to be mailed soon. or if you can't get them done, let us know and we will take care of them for you. we just don't want anyone to receive fewer than they send thanks
So this is a card I made for the Create with Connie and Mary Color Challenge 150. It was definitely a challenge when I saw the colors Poppy Parade, Sahara Sand and Not Quite Navy. I've been wanting to use the Poppy Parade, but every time I think to take it out I find something else. I guess it's just not one of those colors I'm drawn to. But when I put these three colors together, I got a masculine and nautical feel. So I decided to use the Sail Away stamp. Here's a close-up of the Poppy Parade Poly Stitched Twill. I love this ribbon - it's so nice to work with! It's soft, but makes a nice crisp knot! And to color-in the Sail and the water, I used the Aquapainter with Sahara Sand ink and Not Quite Navy ink. And finally, because it was a masculine card, I couldn't add bling, but the antique-brass colored brads added that little something I thought it needed! And I think once this card was all put together, it gave a Ralph Lauren Polo feel!? Thanks for stopping by, Julie

There's a new challenge in The CLASSroom and it requires mixing Essentials by Ellen product with Wplus9 product! You can check out the details and link up HERE. I combined two sets from Essentials by Ellen - Got Candy? and Thankful - and two sets from Wplus9 - Happy Mail and Going Places. All of the links to these fabulous stamp sets and coordinating dies are listed below. I created a fun fall/Halloween/Thanksgiving scene using the leaves, pumpkins and adorable critters! Of course, the squirrels made my son squeal and if you've seen his video using these same squirrels, you'll know why. The stitched hills were made with the Stitched Dies by Paper Smooches. Can you tell that I love using this technique? ;) The patterned paper is from Shimelle's True Stories 6x6 paper pad. I hope you'll play along for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to Ellen Hutson! Sources: InLinkz.com

As many of you may know, I own the post office in my small town of Rupert, Vermont. It is one of the smallest, and definitely the cutest, post office in the state, and probably in the country. It just missed the small post office closures by the skin of it's little postal teeth, but they are cutting the hours it will be open. The postal service will review the activity at our post office annually, and decide what to do with it: restore the "normal" hours, close it, cut back the hours even more, etc. The two things that make a difference to The Postal Powers That Be are (A) revenue, the amount of money the PO brings in via stamp sales and package shipping, and (B) - and this is where you come in - the VOLUME of mail that it handles. So, in an attempt to (A) increase the volume of mail that comes through my little post office, and (B) to do something really FUN, I'm proposing the following: YOU send me an art postcard. It can be original handmade, or a photocopy of something you've made. Print your name and address clearly on the card. Mail to: Jane Davies, PO Box 45, Rupert, VT 05768 I send YOU a postcard, handmade. I don't promise it will be something you want to frame, but it will be original. I will send postcards to the first 200 respondents. I will post ALL the post cards I receive on this blog. On each card I will indicate the name of its creator and the place from whence it came. If the volume is overwhelming, I'll open a separate blog just for the cards. If nobody sends me a card, I will be sad and our post mistress will be out of a good time, and eventually a job. Below are a few samples of the cards that I will send. Each is approximately 4"x6": Here is a little video of the post office in action. Well, at lunch break when the post mistress is out: See the Postcard Gallery here.
