Outgoing: Early Start on the week

I dropped this off this afternoon before work which I usually wait until Monday. Lately I have been forgetting my mail on my desk when rushing to work. So at least, I know that the mailman will pick these up on Monday. But it feels good to drop these off since some of these are very late.



Hoping for a new deco swapper~ I have been wanting to ask Melissa for a while if she wanted to swap with me. I hope to hear from her soon but I sent a few decos her way.



Another deco swap for Dee~ I owed her a swap and a letter. I have a few oversized decos to send her way next.



I wrote to Crystal on Thursday and worked on her swap on Friday. Another overdue swap but I am setting small goals for myself each week.



I will make another post but in this envelope is my handmade Valentine's Day card I make for Karen via a Decolicious swap.

Happy Swappin'~

Letter #0001 of 2012

I am so happy to be mailing out a letter today. My first in 2012! Jessica, I hope this letter arrives quickly.



I used a penguin gift bag for an envelope.i sealed it with clear & snowflake tape. I also used one of the avery mailing labels and my alpha stamps. I included a mini zine I made from my sketchbook scans. Oh and a couple of decos.

Some outgoing stuff

I haven't been all that active but I have been focusing on my mail lately. This is my bag that I take to work which has a nice pocket for my mail. I usually stuff it with letters/swaps that I drop off before I go in the building. Thought I would share it with you all.



I came across my metallic watercolors while organizing my craft room. Even though I had to wait a while for it to dry... I used it on Jenny's envelope to send a deco her way via Decolicious group.



Excess stickers bags going to Robin which should of been mailed a while ago. It's a tiny envelope and somehow got shoved behind recent mail.



I am glad that Jennifer is writing again. Here is a letter I sent her way using treat bags I bought last month. Halloween is way too short. You can also see Jessica's letter as well.



Here's a better look at Jessica's letter. I sent a few decos her way and I found some cute ones that I want to send her way as well. I have too many decos at the moment and I am just not feeling creative enough to sign them all. I used some of my stamps for this.



This is the letter I sent to Katie which I was still rolling with the Halloween theme. I used a bunch of stickers that I had left, hehe. Rubber stamps and a vintage print that I love.



Another chance to use my Halloween stickers. Here's my letter to Yeska, hehe.



This the last letter I mailed out and it's about time I wrote to Ilona. I keep holding on to it because I wanted to stop at the post office to get some airmail stamps. Never got a chance to do so~ I just ended up slapping three regular stamps.

This is as caught up as I will be on this blog. Heh. I have 300+ pictures saved but I think I will start fresh from now one. I will also change the way I post and I hope that help me get back into posting everyday. I have just been so distracted lately trying to keep my mind off of certain things that have been bothering me.

xoxo

OUTGOING #004

I bought these Halloween goodies bags a while back and have been using them as envies. Here is my recent outgoing mail:



A letter to Mandy.



Returning a deco to Raven~ We used to penpal so long ago and I glad I can return a homer.



To the lovely, Tanya~ xoxo



These where all suppose to go out together but one needed more postage.



Letter for Yeska~ xoxo



A letter for Samantha and some FB goodness.

That is all, I've been focusing on my mail lately but I just need to get back in the habit of updating this blog. It's been a lazy Summer for me and I am enjoying Fall so far. I usually get more motivated around this time. I've also been depressed... I had to put Fable down last Monday. I miss him so much.

Mail Dump #004

Time for a photo dump or sort because I have so many pictures saved that I know I haven't even posted yet. Aye. So behind on it all. So here goes, no real order here...



A few weeks ago I got a bookmark bag and since I really didn't have any. I don't read as much as I should and I tend to use whatever when I do. So I had to just pass this along via a Yahoo excess group.



Oh yes, this is a recent letter I sent to Katie. I am happy that she has a mail blog of her very own. She is so creative and how can you not love that. Please visit her blog.



Here's a cluster of letters that went out on the same day. A letter to Nikki, Katie, and Bookmark Bag.



Oh a good mail day here from last Monday. Too bad today I had nothing waiting for me when I got home. But I was happy to see packages from Sarah D. in Canada, Sarah E., and Lauren R.



Here's a closer look at Sarah's envelope.



This is a closer look at Lauren's package. I never swapped with her before and I am looking forward to it. I need to start one her envelope so that I can begin staching decos in it.



Sarah love your handwriting~ I am glad to see you doing decos now.



I printed out some swapcards that I made for a Facebook group and sent some to Lisa. ^____^ She makes the best rubber stamps!



Nikki's letter was sent back for extra postage. But it finally arrived and I am happy about that.



This is the last letter that I mailed out last week. This is for one of my favorite penpals. Miss ya, Yeska!



A deco via a group at Facebook. I believe it was the Day of the Dead deco.



I know I mailed this one a while ago but I am not sure when.



A cluster of mail that went out together. Mail art for Norma. Netflix, and I cannot remember who I sent the green envie too...



A letter to Yeska~ ^_____^



A letter to Kyle, hehe. I drew the little bear myself. XD



Labels going to Canada for Sarah.

I have some recent mail that I need to take photos of but thank you all for stopping by and those who sent mail my way... Muncho Thankies~! ^____^ You really make my day when I see an envelope in my lil' mailbox.

Mail Dump #003

Oh my, I have been wanting to do an actual mail update for a while now. My mail is slow these days which is fine. I cannot wait to move and be all settled down so I can get back to my mail, heh.





I wil start things off with recent mail. I got these two letters in on Saturday.



Here is the back of JJKun's letter. Too cute. ^_____^



I got this letter on the 17th from Vanessa L. in MO. I still need to reply to this one as well.



Remember this? Well, I got it back since I didn't put enough postage. Grr. I took it to the post office to mail it out to make sure I had the right amount. This went out Thursday.

Thank you all for sending some mail my way. ^____~



I have been working on getting rid of my excess for a while now. I went from two bins to just one and mostly what I have left are FBs & decos. I still have label bags left but not as much.



All of this went out last Thursday and mostly was label bags.



These are stamped and ready to go out today. Hopefully the mailman will pick the up and not ignore my mail. It really pisses me off when she/he does that. I have my little red mail clip which stands out against the black of our mailbox. Grr.



I am returning a full LB her way and added a few too.



Sending out some excess to NY.



Sending some random excess to her as well.



Sending Matilde an anime deco that I found.

That's pretty much it for this post. We move this Friday/Saturday. Ah, finally~
