Some of you may remember that I participated in a Pay It Forward on instagram a few months ago. Frances was one of the girls to sign up, and we’d been following each other for a while. She offered to send me a thank you package, a stunning piece of mail which included the most flattering letter. It was impossible not to reply, honestly.
I did however fall of the mail and blogging bandwagon for a while, so sharing this a little late. This was the first letter I made after the pause, and I tried to focus mostly on being creative and letting that take me wherever it wanted. In the end I think it turned out happy if a little messy!
I made a flap on the front, under which there was a mail tag and some washi samples.
Goodies included a bunch of sticky notes and some Project life cards. I also added in a summery playlist that I was listening to as I made it. I love being introduced to new music from my penpals, so thought I’d share myself.
The camera had a hard time picking up the light blue “Laugh More” stamping which was underlined by neon pink washi strips.
I put the letter in a bag on the back of the flip book. I love how the sprinkles washi makes anything seem joyful and bright!
Thank you for looking! Please do share what you do to get back into a creative pursuit if you’ve gotten out of the habit.
May the postman deliver ever in your favour,
