I received Happy Mail today from @LovelyMiss. She really spoiled me!


The card is just amazing; I love it! And then there were so many cute extras, too. She must know I love cats!
Thanks so much!

Yay! Glad it arrived and that you like it, @endymion !!! I think the threads might have gotten mixed up. This card was for the Homemade Greeting Card Swap. I did still call it happy mail so that probably confused things, lol. Sorry about that! :smile:

Iโ€™m so pleased it arrived, just before I left for my holiday I had one returned saying it had fake stamps on the envelope. They werenโ€™t Iโ€™d bought them from royal mail.

I hoped it was a one off

I have received notices that my international mail has been held up because the sender used fake stamps! But, so far, they have all arrived anyway, so not sure what that is about!

this is beautiful @Renstar !
did you stamp the background directly on the card?
Iโ€™m trying to learn how to do better backgrounds on ATCs

This one was a gelli print with a stencil, with extra embellishments added on and the circle is done with gel pens. Iโ€™m still learning / practicing too
