I also received a letter from Rin in Australia.
I love the paper she used! |
Along with her letter she sent a fortune telling fish. I love it, it's so cute!
The last one, the postcard, is from Vicki in Boston Massachusetts. She took the picture of "Appeal to the Great Spirit", a favorite statue of hers, at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, then had it made into a postcard. I think that's really neat to get your photographs made into postcards. Another thing I've thought about, but haven't actually tried.
glad you liked it :) I think they are super cute & Fun! Happy Mail Day! xo Rin
ReplyDelete:D I showed my friends, they really liked it too!
DeleteGlad she got there safe and sound ;)
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteHow neat! I adore the stationery that Rin sent. And the paper doll notecard from Shannah is really cute too. :) The fortune teller fish is so neat. Don't you just love getting letters in the mail?
ReplyDeleteI do! It is so much fun to see what people will send you, what paper they use, what they say, etc!
Deletei've been thinking about drawing flags on the next letter i'm going to write, but this paper is SO MUCH BETTER! it's lovely.
ReplyDeletehow does that fortune fish work? it sounds amazing, but i don't get how such a thing could tell your future? :-)
I know, I love the paper too!!!
DeleteThe fish is really thin plastic (like cellophane, I think). I think it is the heat of your palm that makes it move. Depending on if it is the head, tail, both, curling sides, etc. will mean something different (like jealousy, in love, false, passionate, etc.) It is pretty cool!
