john and i snatched up a package of glitter alphas the other day for a few
cards we needed to send to a couple of loved ones.
this card was for a quick love note to my bestest in NH.
i think it looks like something out of a 1950's magazine advertisement
and i just love the persimmon and aqua colors together.
aren't you just dying over that envelope lining too?
i love adding embellishments to note cards . . . they're easy, quick
and really make our paper look extra special.
i'd prefer to take our basic stationery from home and create something by hand
with pretty appliques and add-ons than purchase a card at a store . . .
it's so much more personal. the notes usually aren't long,
but i hope the recipients feel special when they open a card created by john or me.
tell me, do you send letters? do you have personalized stationery,
buy stuff or create your own each time you write to someone?

I love writing letters! I love putting pen to paper and writing things myself - it's so much more personal. i think it's part of the reason i really love using pen & paper when i write (novel stuff too). i used to put a lot more time into my stationery, but now it's tough to find time to write, so i just use whatever i can find, or already have around. i make my own envelopes though, from old calendars. more personal, and definitely more fun!
