1. Pendant I made a few months ago and totally forgot about until someone else on Instagram posted beautiful jewelry they made, so I had to look for my pendant.

2. Fall seals with a twist, in pastel colors!

Hello friends,

Sharing my art creations in a little Art vs Print of this month's snail mail club edition, hope you like it 🫶🏻

Dressing up my envelopes right before I postage stamp em up and send them on their way.

Also I’m transitioning into Halloween themed envelope art. It’s going to be 2.5 months of this so hold on to your seats folks.

I'd like to thank u/CadillacGirl for these wonderful surprises i received this past week! The envelopes were decorated beautifully, and they were such a treat to see in the mailbox.😍 Among three envelopes were stickers, beautiful papers, lovely gift tags, some wax veneers, glitter, and glow in the dark powder, all of which I will definitely find good use for!

It’s spooky season where I am and I’m full in.

Thank you to u/mooshu492 for selling me extra The Art of Disney Romance, Friendship and Magic stamp sheets! I am looking forward to sharing with pen pals and on postcards. Thank you as well for the generous extra sheet of 3x stamps!

Finally finished the masterboard and now I really don't want to cut it up! 😆

This gorgeous one of a kind fountain pen and ink themed birthday card arrived all handmade by u/AbaloneFountainPen

She is very talented and I can’t stop ooohing and aaaahing at this beautiful card.
Even the wax seal is on point!

I had fun today!

been trying different stuff making my own postcards :)

Traveling Postcards (TPCs) are one of my biggest mail hobbies. If you’re unfamiliar, the gist is that you pick a theme for your TPC (for example, wedding!) and add stickers to one of the spaces on the TPC that correspond to the theme. Then, you send onto another person, who does the same. The cycle continues until all of the spots on the TPC are full, and then the last participant to fill out a spot mails the card back to whomever started it.

I started this TPC for my wedding back in November 2025 and designated some friends to participate. Just got it back in the mail yesterday, and holy cow, people did an excellent job decorating this!

A friend gifted me one of her handmade wax bars, and I tried it right away on this beautiful stamp.

Hello everyone!!

Im really excited!! I want to try starting my own Round Robin Traveling Journal 🥰 Ive heard about a couple going around before and always wanted to try it. Honestly i dont have much artistic talent and I've always loooved seeing other people's art drawings and scrapbook creations, and id love the chance to collect people's one of a kind art myself 🎨

If you like drawing, scrapbooking, writing poems, or even just decorating a couple pages with favorite quotes and stickers. Then id love to send my traveling journal out to you as well!

🪷 Im hoping to get 5-10 people who want to participate.

✨️ Each person can keep the journal for 2ish weeks, to work on their art without rushing.

❄️ Each person can decorate 2 pages front and back however their hearts desire.

🎉 I will post a form below for anyone who's interested, and after a couple days I will make a list and reach out to those who want to participate. (Please be flaired or atleast active in our community).

🤩 Once we have our list of participants I will DM you with my personal information and info on the people you will receive and then send the book to, so that we can keep track of the journals progress on its journey around the world 💕❤️

I look forward to seeing everyones creations!! 😍

* Please consider SHIPPING costs before committing to participation. The small journal wont be heavy at first but that could change as it fills up.

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR JOINING IN ON OUR FUN!!

hi all, happy sunday! i decided to treat myself before i start grad school this coming week (excited but a little nervous haha) and got some fun stationery things for scrapbooking, pen pals / trading, and just general mail sending! i just had a new stationery store open up less than a year ago near me and they carry the best stationery stuff that is all imported from areas within asia or sourced from small artists !!! also supported two local artists at a market and got some fun postcards to send out and the cutest bunny stickers!

also definitely keep an eye out, i plan to send postcards here eventually - i actually got some supplies to make my own and am currently brainstorming a large linocut design :^)

I am looking forward to using the 1980 National Letter Writing Week sheet for pen pals! Global Postcrossing Forevers and 2c’s to round out the haul

I decided to get a few up close photos of the Sneezeweed around my apartment complex and tried redrawing it. Ill need to do a lot of practice. I like how stylized the original is but the second at least looks slightly more realistic.

I would love your thoughts and suggestions. Im very much just an occasional doodler and want to.get a little better even if it stays simple.

Hello all 🫶🏻

Wanted to share a picture of my art creations on this month's snail mail ❤️ hope you like it ✨️✨️

I have been trying to think of different things I can add to my penpal letters. One thing I was thinking is a little piece of drawn art of whatever I see. Today I decided on a flower called Sneezeweed. They grow all around my apartment complex.

I would love some other ideas to add to my penpal letters. Im already thinking of bookmarks, pressed leaves and flowers, spells for the witchy folks i write, food recipes, and painted mini landscapes.

Thanks to u/Mrpostman414 for the belated happy birthday postcard
And u/withinus for the early Happy Halloween 🎃 and vintage NY postcards.

I need to figure out who sent the Pantone postcard.

Made my week end in a beautiful note.
