Snow equals wet postcards apparently

Just like the title of this post says . My postcard I got using postcrossing.com was wet when I took it out of the mailbox . There was huge amounts of snow all of the sudden one night and day so I think this is why the corner p the postcard was wet. Usually my mail is never wet so I dunno . Here is my wonderful incoming :)

1) awesome letter with lots of goodies like sand and shells from her recent trip to mexico ! Zebras too and the letter she wrote to me was typed on old medical journal paper !!! So awesome . This is from none other than miss Jessica gowling from naturesmyfriend.wordpress.com
2) this is a letter from a new pen pal in the states . Iowa to be exact ! I was so excited to read her long and Interesting letter !! So much fun and I can tell we are going to be great pen pal friends . She even included stickers and stationary !!!
3) 2 postcards I got via postcrossing.com
4) close up of awesome stamps from Jessica .
5) close up of stamps from
My new pen pal ! Look at that spider !!! So kewl

Forgetting sucks

These are my outgoing . I had alot of fun ! The only thing is I forgot to take photographs of two postcards I sent!!

1) back of envelope . I went a little trigger happy with the handle with care stickers
2) letter going to a new pen pal in the states ! It's. Super thick letter because of my need to write Long letters . Heh . I really don't mean to write huge letters but I just can't help it !! I got to use my new international titanic stamps . Don't you love this octopus letter ?
3) this is the from for picture #1 it's close to spring and robins and eggs are something you see around y area and I know my pen pal will enjoy :)

That's all for now . It's Monday and I haven't seen the mail lady yet :)

What I've been up too

Mail- wise anyways . It's funny that my blog has gravitated towards mail . I am more excited to post about my mail than anything else I guess? Well i have tons of photographs that I want to share but I would like to use some of them for some inspiration for some paintings I will be doing . Like I've said before I haven't been painting lately ! Arg ! Anyways I hope you enjoy my photos of my outgoing mail :)

The mail has arrived

I was getting anxious because I haven't recieved any mail in awhile , but Alass today I recieved two letters and a postcard. It was also a Canadian holiday on Friday and Monday so I had to wait it out and than on Tuesday all I got was a bill ugh lol. Anyways I hope you enjoy the photos of my incoming mail ;)
