I hope its still ok to join. I would love to participate in this craftalong, even tho Im on a tight budget, so I wont be able to send as many Happy Mail as I would want too.
Hello,
Iโm Josefin from Sweden, living by myself with my old hamster boy. I like dogs and animals very much (had a dog, but not at the moment), reading, crafting (sewing, crochet, knitting, embroidery is what I usually do), writing (I try to write creatively and some poetry).
I havenโt done much paper craft, but I think this is a good opportunity to try some.
My birthday month is in December.
You are free to send what you want, but please no glitter, spiders or creepy crawlies. Just a Happy Mail is enough and well appreciated! If you want to send extras I like ATCโs, washi tape and stickers (things to put in my bullet journal).

I have sent nearly 50 postcards on this trip! Some to family but most to crafty friends here. Expect a snowy bit of western Canada in the mail shortly!
I received a pretty bird-themed card from @Lynxโฆthank you!

In the evenings when weโre sitting to rest I crochet & write postcards. Itโs distracting & relaxing after all the work of filling and moving boxes!
Iโm having my mail held the rest of the week to give the postal carrier a break during our imminent Snowmageddon, so thatโll be it from me for a sec. Who knows; maybe Iโll get some cards ready to go out .

I am home from my trip and for the first time since the start of this craftalong there isnโt any mail! I had a single envelop from stats Canada & a return card from our aunt & that was all, wow. Thank you all for not overwhelming my holiday mailbox!
I received a postcard from @Magpie and it almost made me homesick for Alberta. Your description of the mountains and lakes is so familiar and a sight I miss.
I also received this card from @endymion. Pam the bird pages you included are wonderful and Iโve seen all those birds in real life.
