Many years ago my sister told me she watched a lot of YouTube, it was a place I never visited. These days I’m never off it.
I’ve investigated and learnt about all sorts, from digital notebooks, drawing techniques and crafting.
It was there that I discovered a love of paper craft, which encompasses so many different things. I also came across a term I’d not heard before – Happy Mail.
The term Happy Mail means any snail mail received that is not bills or junk mail, and which makes us happy! I personally think that sending snail mail is even more meaningful now than ever because it shows the recipient we really care.

I found that I loved making gift tags, book marks, card embellishments, stitched mini books, and more. So I poured my love into making several items, and from my Facebook page I did a giveaway intending to randomly select one name. About six people entered and I had enough to send them all something. It was fun and I’ll probably do it again in the future.
If you’d like to take part in my next one, follow me on Facebook.
These are some of the things I made to send out.

And these are some things I’ve made recently.
