So much kindness

Remember my Altered Envelopes ? So much fun to create and I will definitely make more of them.

I have exchanged some of my envelopes and received last week an envelope and parcel with a thank you... such kindness!

From Monique I received this wonderful altered envelope and extra's.

Gorgeous stamps and  Dutch vintage postcards


From Nicole I received a parcel with lots of goodies.

Beautiful card!! Love the stitching


Mini album... great frame and flower... perfect to add photo's

Naughty chocolate and extra's



Thank you so much Monique and Nicole, I feel so lucky and I love it all!



Saturday

More Altered Envelopes

As promised here are the other envelopes I altered, believe me it is addictive because I still want to make more... more... more... I used some of the new Summer distress inks they are definitely a must have, stunning colours!

No doubt there will be more of these... next step is to use larger envelopes, paper scraps and so on. It would be nice to see what the envelope looks like when you actually send it to someone :) I wonder if there is anyone out there up of a swap? Would love to create some envelopes (and matching cards) for my crafty friends :) Just leave a comment if you do or contact me by email.
