smash sunday

Hi guys! Oh, how I've missed "smash sunday", have you? Well, I hope you did, because I have some post in store for you, not necessarily about my smashbook, but about crafting and scrapbooking in general.
To start off again, today I'm having a lovely lady guest posting here.. let's see what she shared with us! ☺

Hi everyone! My name is Michelle Marie, and I blog over at Seaweed Kisses. When I'm not busy eating, traveling, or working my 9 to 5 job, my hours are spent crafting and writing.Today I would like to share some of my favorite go-to snail mailing tools.

I've been snail mailing for years now, but only amongst close friends and family, you see. It wasn't until recently that I started to branch out, and made some new wonderful pen pals. I honestly had no idea that the snail mail community still existed given how reliant we've quickly become on modern technology. Silly me, I guess I've been missing out all these years.

Now that my pen pal list has grew significantly, this has given me great opportunities to exercise my creativity and to find inspiration in everyday surroundings. One of the most recent projects that helped me bring out more of my imagination was the awesome Secret Pen Pal Scavenger Hunt that Fab had wonderfully put together.  It was so much fun, and I was introduced to many more like-minded people from all over the world.

So here I am, hooked on snail mailing and decorating paper.

In the past, the typical pen and paper were my best friends, but now as you'll see my crafting tools have greatly expanded since those beginning days.

Cute Finds III

Hi guys! Today I'm gonna share with you some of the things I've bought lately.
While I was in Paris, there were many, many cute shops where I would have loved to go on a shopping spree, but as I've said many times, the prices were too high for my budget.
Anyway, I do managed to get some cute things anyway ☺
As I wrote in my previous post, while visiting the LaFayette galleries, we stumbled upon a PaperChase stand. My boyfriend patiently waited a good 40 minutes for me to decide what to get without spending a fortune, and this is what I got:
➽ a set of stamp shaped postcards with the cutest illustrations:

➽ a scrapbook with black pages and a gorgeous Asian themed cover:

I NO LONGER POST ON THIS BLOG, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY NEW ONE!

Hi guys!
For this Freebie Friday I have something different for you.
I was thinking about what is something I often send to my penpals and "a list of favourite books" popped in my mind, so I decided to make a printable to send them in a much nicer and fun way ☺

Please let me know if you'd like to see more of this kind of printables or not, and feel free to suggest more things I could make in the future!
Have a lovely weekend

I NO LONGER POST ON THIS BLOG, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY NEW ONE!

Hi guys! I hope you all had a great Valentine's day/Galentine's day/Thursday :) and that you took the chance to eat a lot of chocolate!
I have a very random, yet somehow fitting, freebie for you today:

Click here to download

I found this illustration in a forgotten folder in my external hard disc, and since I think it's quite cute (I like teeth.. is that weird?) I decided to make a letter set with it. I reckon it's not my best work, but I've got a lot on my plate right now and 24h a day aren't enough.
Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy it ☺
Have a nice weekend!

Exclusive Printables Newsletter

Hello guys, 2013 has started and I'm very glad to leave 2012 behind me. I want the new year to get off to a good start and the only way to do it, is to challenge myself with a project.
One of my friends and I, once had an idea very similar to what Julie & Laura created recently, but you know how it is, life sometimes throws a spanner in the works and your dreams fall into oblivion.
As I said, I needed a trigger to feel creatively challenged this year, so I decided to brush up this old dream, reshape it, and make it more suitable to my own capacities.

/ I'm starting to blab, so let's cut to the heart of the matter:

I know you guys love printables (I do, too!), and I'm grateful for every single one of you who downloads or buy mine.
My idea for this new year, is to create a newsletter service that will deliver to you, every first day of the month, an exclusive printable letter set!
The freebies will still be up every Friday on my blog, but by subscribing to this mailing list, you'll be granted access to premium letter sets and occasional bonuses that will be exclusive to the members only :)

Think of it as a subscription to a lucky bag, you know that you'll be receiving a letter set but you don't know how it will look like, its theme, etc. Thrilling, uh?
Of course the themes will be quite generic so that there's more chances that everyone will like them (for example, you'll never find a printable about, let's say, wrestling. The themes will range from vintage to food to travels and so on).

I wrote a FAQ page (that will be updated with time) about this, so you can check it out to find out the details.
But let's do the grownups talk, how much will it cost you? Quite a bargain if you ask me:

I probably shouldn't tell you but I can't resist.. the first theme is going to be "vintage postage" and I love how the letter vset turned out, so I'm very excited to offer it first!
If I got you interested, keep reading for all the details and the how-to's  ▼

Guess who's back, back again, Freebie Friday's back.. tell a friend ♫
*cringing inner voice: I really need to sort out my introductions* // Random fact of the day: does any of you like Eminem? Because I really do!
Anyways guys, I hope you'll be glad to see the freebies getting out and about, because I have a few sets I'm really excited to share with you, starting from this one:

You can download it from my new site! Click here.

I personally love traveling, collecting maps from the places I visit, and such things, so making a themed letter set was really fun!
Let me know if you like them as much as I do :)
Enjoy!

festive friday III

I NO LONGER POST ON THIS BLOG, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY NEW ONE!

Well hello guys! Happy weekend, how are you?
Is the Christmas spirit all over you already? My family will decorate the tree tomorrow, so for now the closest I've gotten to Christmas is through ALL the pictures that everyone's posting on Instagram of their trees, stockings, garden decorations and all that jazz, plus the lighting's they put in the streets of my town, of course!
Anyway, for you who are more festive than me, here the freebies for this week:

As usual, let me know if you like them and don't forget to check out the other "festive fridays" if you haven't already: here and here.
I also want to apologise as I dont' know what I've messed up in the code of the theme, but nothing is working as it should (like the tags, or the comments!) but I'll try to fix it as soon as I can!

Have a lovely day,
ƒ.

it's time for some mail!

Hi guys! Let me start off by saying thank you to all of you who still stick around despite my lack of mail-related updates. I'm super lazy and forgetful and it's a deadly comb; But anyway, today's the day I finally update you all on my mail :)
Let's begin!
Have you ever cried while reading a letter? I mean tears of joy. I did, a couple of times, but this one time was the best. My friend Khris from Spain, sent me a letter (well, actually letters - 5 of them!) and I swear I wish you could all read them because what she wrote, and how she wrote it.. is freaking pure bliss.

On a side note, she also sent me some delicious tea that made my reading even more lovely, and some music themed stickers to wish me to have a great time at the concert :')
Then I got mail from Nastya in Russia, who sent me a wonderful pic of her hometown:
