Outgoing [October]

Yet more mail for my new pen pals and some of my old ones course. I feel like I have taken on a lot of new pen pals recently. But the first time was July and then again in September, so a 3 month gap not bad really. No more for the rest of the year! More importantly I managed to get everything out to everyone in October! Woop! I really hate writing to someone for the first time, all that awkwardness is out of the way.

I am glad to have a bit of rest, I have nothing urgently to reply to. I haven't got a picture of all my outgoing mail, due to my bad memory and occasionally crappy camera skills. I'm just glad they all out and the majority of them have been received already.

Bird Mail

My last post was about my fabulous mail from Corey. I only took a few shots but this was my reply. Again I don't do posts on individual incoming or outgoing mostly due to lack of time and energy. But I'm happy with my effort and thought I would share.

The envelope I made from paper I bought from the National Art Centre Tokyo. I could spend forever in their gift shop. I love the print so much and it's a perfect match for Corey. The contents include birdy bits I have collected from all over. I'm glad I could manage to put together a bird theme. The paper is left over from some sheets I had in the UK.

Autumn Mail

I received this little mail surprise from Corey G. a fellow Instagrammer, who has a wonderful IG account and blog by the way. It was much appreciated and mail has been scarce so doubly so. I don't usually post about individual but had to do so for this. It's so simple and sweet you can see the amount of effort gone into it AND autumn is my favourite season.

Her other postal efforts are amazing and I feel fortunate to have received something from her. I had already had something I was working on for her, unfortunately it will not even compare to this. 

Thanks Corey!
