Oh yay!

Also, I've have been visiting family and showed my nieces (freshman, jr, sr in high school) what we're doing. Now they all want to start a mail exchange too hehe, I guess they're not too cool to craft with their old auntie!

I'm glad you took pretty pictures... because I ripped right in to it. LOL! Where did you find that big tape? I was really tempted to find a way to reuse it.

I need to get my own package in the mail... UGH! TOO MUCH TO DO! Waah.

I tried to be as creative as possible so I hope she likes what I made, but I'm afraid it pails in comparison to the rest of you.
This will be in the mail tomorrow. yay!! Hope Sara likes it. :-)

I made some pocket-style cards

Ok... I've finished packing and planned to send this in yesterday, but I didn't get the chance to go to the post office yesterday. I'll try to sneak into the post office tomorrow.

Here's my package for Andrea:

These are so cute! I think I need to do something like this for my niece who has a birthday soon! I've been thinking of sending her brother a box of balloons with cash and trinkets inside (as seen on Pinterest) and wanted to do something fun with her but not the exact same thing. She will be turning 14 this year, I could send her a smash book and some goodies for it but really go crazy with the packaging to make it special. Thanks for the inspiration!

Yeah Kim! I can't believe yours arrived so "quickly". I received mine this week too - loved the photo & little note you wrote too. I'll have to send another parcel to introduce myself too My friend have been visiting me for the past week or so, so I didn't really have time to properly explore, but that's high on the to-do list!
