Happy Mail Craftalong 2021 ~ Monthly themes and Birthdays too!

Bugaboo · April 21, 2021, 12:57pm

I also received a beautiful earth day card from @Ewulotta and then a lovely picture from @Lynx that’s really beautiful photography and then the sticky gems I LOV cause everything is better with pink and sparkles in my world! I also received from @Amfkinney a lovely Paris inspired card, so pretty

On the tea front I did not grow up drinking tea more espresso and really dark coffee’s! I will drink a limited selection of tea my favorites are Irish or Scottish breakfast (not really English), and I love this caramel tea from bungalow I found. I may also do a cup of a French vanilla bungalow tea but other than that nope…not into herbal teas at all!!!

I received a lovely card and note from @Ewulotta and a surprise Paris themed card from @Amfkinney!

Thanks! I did not have an address for you, @Amfkinney , but now that I do, happy mail will be coming your way!

My latest happy mail from @Ewulotta, @jemimah and @Amfkinney. Thank you so much.

Immaculata · April 21, 2021, 4:48pm

Just out of curiosity @Ewulotta did you mail that whole set of cards on the same day? Because I’m so surprised people around the world all seem to get it on the same day.

AIMR · April 21, 2021, 4:51pm

I was curious about that as well!

jemimah · April 21, 2021, 4:52pm

A tea party sounds perfect!! Maybe Tea Party could be a theme for a future month?

Beautiful cards everyone, I love looking back through this thread

Ewulotta · April 21, 2021, 5:00pm

Yes, I actually sent a whole bunch together but not all of them. If I remember correctly I sent the ones to @Reinikka and @AIMR first.

Ewulotta · April 21, 2021, 5:03pm

I love tea party I’m a tea addcit. It also reminds me that I wanted to rework my info.

kittykill · April 21, 2021, 5:28pm

I am always down for a tea party! I’m a tea addict too.

July High (tea)

Reinikka · April 21, 2021, 7:41pm

I added Tea Party to the theme idea list A lot of the ideas I have for July could also be used in August, or any month really! Keep the ideas coming! I’m keeping a list (and checking it twice)

Ewulotta · April 21, 2021, 8:04pm

Okay, I definitely have to catch up here. I was absolutely spoiled by a lot of happy mail last week.
First of all one of @PhoenixFireDesigns magnificent sunset cards. @Bugaboo’s cute April shower card arrived sound and safe. And I’m also a happy recipient of one of @Reinikka’s beautiful rain drop cards.

I also received a terrific happy mail package from @bluebird

And then there’s some happy mail from @susieoregon with one of her beautiful flowers and bee cards, a lovely crochet rainbow bookmark and a postcard from Oregon. I really like those postcards, I have to admit - I’m planning on using them for my English lessons in school.

Thank you, everyone!
I’m still making up my mind how to display all those pretty cards properly

we should totally have a zoom tea party sometime!

Bugaboo · April 21, 2021, 11:47pm

I received an adorable card from @Cindy with this super cute and really cool how it fastens on Paper clip based on a plant leaf. I love it!

I’d be up for a zoom meetup for this group!

Whistlefish · April 22, 2021, 12:12am

Oh that’d be so much fun!

Lynx · April 22, 2021, 12:19am

I finally got some stamps I ordered and a few crafting minutes, so working on some happy mail to send!

AIMR · April 22, 2021, 12:21am

The Star Wars Droids stamps come out in two weeks!

megwell · April 22, 2021, 12:44am

I was just on the USPS site buying stamps and saw those! Coming out on May the Fourth, naturally. I went for the Hot Wheels stamps instead, though.

Cindy · April 22, 2021, 12:47am

Oh no, the two hearts fell off the front … were they in the envelope?

AIMR · April 22, 2021, 12:58am

lol I thought it was cool that the outline sort of went with the paperclip look…shhhh…it looks good even without the hearts!
