Incoming and Outgoing Mail

It's been a busy few weeks but I have still been sending letters and postcards, a few swaps thrown in for good measure. I have also received some lovely mail.

OUTGOING MAIL

A letter to a pen friend in The Netherlands

I sent her; an owl postcard, a fill in the blanks mini card with silly questions like "What animal would you be?" and "What would your superpower be?", a bookmark and I wrote her letter in the cat notecard.

Recently I wrote to a lovely lady from the UK living in France, I sent her a letter through sendsomething.net and she replied, this is my envelope now winging it's way back to her.

INCOMING MAIL

Yesterday I received a reply from my pen friend in The Netherlands and one from my pen friend in Germany, both beautifully decorated envelopes.

This morning I received an official from Poland.
I was lucky to receive this senders first sent postcard with a lovely long message.

I am going to wait a few days before replying to my mail and start working on some Christmas craft projects, I think this weekend will be a letter writing weekend for me.

Sundays and Outgoing Mail

Sunday is a no mail day so I like to take the opportunity to catch up on projects and letter writing. One Sunday I had fun creating a birthday card for one of my new pen pals in Russia. I found this idea on Pinterest, inside the card I added some small goodies - a gingerbread latte sachet, some postcards and a letter. Hopefully this will reach her in time for her birthday.
