Introverted Post

So, I'm not sure what happened to them, but have not seen any posts since October (and they do a quarterly online mail call). Really hope all is ok. We never know, esp. now with the pandemic.

I got lovely feedback from them for my October mail, so I thought i'd add then to my "send to" list, but I never heard back. So thought i'd share any way what i sent and what I planned to send:

Magazine page. LOVE, Love, LOVE how well the stamp went!! (#happyaccident!) 
Can you tell what the background design is? (Hint: it's a beverage. Will reveal at the end.)


Since I sent at the beginning of the year, thought I'd send a 2020 insert.

Back flap.

Did you guess the design? It's Gatorade bottles up close.

Let is Snow (Cmas Stamp)

Winter-themed to go with the snow and cold. 


Tried to do her name in a delicate fashion and used the Cmas-themed stamp, 
as it looked good with the envelope (better in-person).

You can barely see, but it says, "hello" in white above the "W" ("hello Winter!) I also embossed a snowflake at the end.

Let it Snow insert. Folded pen and pastels.

Happy New Year to Annie (IG)

Annie started following my on IG when I first started posting, and was very complimentary of all my "Word" posts from Sept. 2019 (from other lettering blog:  https://lovemesomeart.blogspot.com/2019/09/so-many-words.html )

I participated on an IG Halloween exchange earlier this year, and got her address off of that. Sent her an envie at the time and decided to send a New Year's one as well.

Another leftover stamp which needed extra postage (she's in the UK). Tried to coordinate colors. Wasn't sure how to do her name, so I went with something fun and whimsical.

Love how I thought to do the back!

Happy New Year to Nele

I have a few leftover stamps from years ago, that need additional postage, and here is one.

Thought it fitting to use for the New Year, as it's a Chinese New Year stamp. Didn't know how to do her name to match, so just drew the letters and added color to match.

All the inserts I sent.
