Signed Sealed Delivered

When was the last time you picked up a pen and your trusty inkwell, hand wrote a note, took it to the post office and actually (gasp) mailed it to a friend? No, I'm not referring to the obligatory thank you card to grandma. I love sending and receiving hand written notes. You have to appreciate the effort that goes into them, especially when we click through hastily composed emails day in and out. That being said, here is some stationary I made for my friend, Brit.

I found inspiration in my mom's friend, Jan, who puts Martha Stewart to shame (if you know Jan and the things she does, you know that's not an exaggeration). This is a super inexpensive project that you can really take in any direction - all you need is a few different colors of construction paper, scissors, a glue stick, and imagination. Let's bring back the written word, people!

I like these pieces because they are the note and envelope in one. What a fun way to say hi to an old friend!
