So . . . a couple of Days ago I stumbled across some beautiful Happymail tucked into Trading Card Sleeves on Instagram-and being a Person who LOVES Penpalling, Snailmail, Happymail & Co. I was really excited about this cute idea.
After a little research I found out it is a fun idea Janette Lane came up with: Pocket Letters (go check out her Blogpost about them) . . . it reminded me of swapping Artist Trading Cards, which are also send / collected in those Card Sleeves and I really enjoyed working on that small format back when I was into ATCs-so I gave Pocket Letters a try and really love it. it is so much fun and I truly LOVE the idea that after you receive some Happymail you can easily store it away in a Binder and look at it again & again (compared to the usual letters you just have to tuck away in Boxed or something because after some Months / Years of Penpalling you do not know where else to put them to keep them . . .! Very convenient and oh so cute . . .! I made a little Video of the latest Set I made-so if you want some more Information and Inspiration check out the Video below!

Ich bin da bei Instagram auch drüber gestolpert und sofort angefixt worden. Ich habe mir gleich 100 von diesen Baseballkartenhüllen bestellt… 1:00 Uhr würde mir gefallen. Allerdings bin ich leider künstlerisch nicht halb so begabt wie du.

I received you blog post and went over to Facebook and waiting for approval for your Facebook group. Mean while I also just bought a set of your new rubberstamps. Can’t wait to use them. I’ve been pen paling since I was in the 4th grade. I love my pen pals and think this is a wonderful thing you came up with. Thanks, and get wait to join the others in the Facebook group.
