Happy Mail


Fun envelope from Nan. She cleverly used the basketball stamp as the body of her turkey. Sadly, someone at the Post Office didn't appreciate her creativity as they scribbled a cancellation mark with ballpoint pen. Visigoths!


The back of the envelope with pretty Washi tape and a cute Thanksgiving sticker.


Inside, an adorable hand-made card with a lovely note inside. Love that bear. Thanks for thinking of me Nan.

      Homemade cards are the best and way better than getting a bill in the mail. :-D

      I know. The postal clerk could have used the hand cancel stamp. Wouldn't have cost them anything.

    Aw, don't blame the postal worker....they're slammed this time of year (and have managers with quotas to answer to.) Always nice to get 'love' in the mail!

    I have asked my mail person to NOT use those horrible black markers because we use these stamps in our art. Seems she hasn't pulled her black sharpie out since I asked her to not cancel them that way.

    I did like the turkey idea, though. Clever of Nan. I also liked the card. You got a wonderful gift through the mail.
