Butterflies to Hsin-Yi


I found this beautiful card to be sent to Hsin-Yi.
It suited perfectly to my butterfly craze period!


I like cards which have also a beautiful background, which I think this one has.



On the envelope I used my new Sakura Gelly Roll pens which I bought according to the instructions got from Hsin-Yi. :)

Butterflies to Miwa


I sent this card to Miwa, it's about an etching by Inari Krohn (she is a Finnish painter and graphic artist, and some other work by her can be seen here http://www.amagallery.net/kokoelmat/krohn/koko_krohn.htm).
The name of this artwork is Messenger. I love the colors on it.



I have had some kind of a butterfly craze for some time now, and I lately bought these butterfly rubber stamps.
My stamping wasn't very perfect in this envelope, but actually I liked the unsuccessful result, because it made the envelope look beautifully beaten-up. :)

Handmade card


This lovely handmade card came from PostMuse, thanks a lot!
I like the postage and old handwriting theme in the picture used in this card. It would be interesting to know where this beautiful picture is cut from.

Cat Rubber Stamp


I saw this cute rubber stamp in Jennifer's blog http://stationeryaddicted.blogspot.com/, and asked where she had got it from. The answer was Etsy, and so I made my first order there, and today my lovely stamp arrived!

Bird Stamps


This card of a very beautiful view in Prague arrived today from Ivana.



She had used a gorgeous bird stamp!



This was my latest card to her. It shows the Archipelago Sea of Finland.




I had used old sea related stamps, and one of them was also a bird stamp.

Love



I got this very very beautiful card, which describes love, today from Hsin-Yi.


- It's sad that the glorious mother-of-pearl look in the card isn't visible in these scanned pictures.


I love the card, the stamps and the stickers, so in many ways this is a perfect love card! :)
Thank you for this lovely surprise, Hsin-Yi!

Red for Bianca

Red is Bianca's color, and I succeeded to find a beautiful red magazine page be used as a skeleton of the envelope to her.



I had first thought to use this magazine page as a part of the envelope, but then I realized that it has so much empty space, that I can use it also as a note paper! I was happy of inventing this and I'll definitely use the same idea again!

House Mailbox


This cheerful looking mailbox I met today during my Sunday walk.
