Flowers Everywhere

Hey! ❤

How are you? I think I'm still lacking motivation, inspiration and whatnot but I'm here anyway. :D

I'm sorry for being M.I.A for so long! I've been busy organizing my life (sounds cliched but actually it's not) and, surprisingly, everything looks much clearer now. There's only one school period left (and only one exam week, yes!) and I still don't really get it. This year went by so quickly! In a couple of weeks I'll be in Rome with  my class and I'm so excited! I'm also about to get my car driving license soon (next Wednesday I hope!). That, and the struggle of finding a summer job have been my number one stress makers lately. But now I also have a summer job and it happens to be something I really love to do! There's also a lot of other exciting things about to happen in Summer. Finally I feel like I can actually breath. I love the weather outside, especially all the flowers, and those were my inspiration to edit these mail pictures haha...

So, in the middle of all the other things in my super busy high school life (haha), I've also sent mail. Occasionally, people ask me why I send mail and isn't it boring blah blah and right now I could say I'm doing this because it's my number one stress reducer. Making others happy makes me happy. :) 

All these letters etc. below are quite old already and probably they've all traveled to their destinations by now so please don't mind. :D

These three went to Poland, China and Sri Lanka:

 

I loved making those envelopes! I used these Finns-are-so-weird stamps:

This letter is to Shine, Chine:

This one is to Martyna, Poland:

And this one is to Suhanya, Sri Lanka:

In her last letter she sent me a magnet so I wanted to send her a magnet aswell :)

And this yellow letter I sent to Emilia, my pretty much first actual Finnish penpal ever:

Here's what was inside:

Oh, and the final chain card from the other flower themed chain, ready to be sent back to Malaysia:

 Aaand, here's the reply I got from Emilia the first Finnish penpal of mine:

I just LOVE how beautiful the envelope is! And the matching stamps! ❤

  On the back it says "open immediately" which is pretty much what I did as soon as I received the letter :D

I was so awed when I opened the envelope, everything was just so pretty!

And I love how she'd put all the letter papers separately (or how should I call that? xD)! For example, in that picture below it says "here you can find 5 and 6" :)

 

 And this letter I got from Daria, Germany:

I love how the envelope was filled with all those cute stickers, stationery and such! ❤

And this letter I sent to Sara, Malaysia:

The envelope looks quite bad in the picture.. But anyway, I tried a bit marbling with it and it didn't turn out the way I had hoped but I still like the result. :) I put one of those stamps on her letter too:

That's all from now. Thanks for reading! ❤ Let's see when you'll hear from me the next time :D

Love From Finland

Tiistaina koulun jälkeen iskä tuli hakemaan mua koulusta, kun piti heti ehtiä vielä kirjastoon. Aloitin lähes heti autoon päästyäni jo tutuksi tulleen sarjan kysymyksiä: Tuliko mitään postia? Sainko minä jotain? Myöntävän vastauksen jälkeen jatkan: Mitä sain? Keneltä? Millainen kirjekuori siinä on? Iskä vastasi, että kirje oli "sellainen värikäs" ja jatkoi sen olevan "luultavasti Kiinasta". Näin iskä lähes aina vastaa. :D Joten olin ihan ällikällä löyty, kun kotiin päästyäni näin kirjeen. Se ei todellakaan ollut Kiinasta, vaan täältä kotisuomesta! Ja vielä ihanan pirteän värikäs kuori! ❤

Nätit kirjekuoret saa mut hetkessä ihan järjettömän hyvälle tuulelle! 

Kirje oli mun ihka ensimmäiseltä suomalaiselta kirjekaverilta sitten ala-asteen, Emilialta!

Kirje oli täynnä kaikkia ihania yksityiskohtia... 

...kuten leimoja ja tosi kauniita teippejä! :)

Kiitti, Emilia!

My First Chaincard's Home!

Hi! I hope you're having a great day! 

Yesterday I posted this on Instagram (↓) with a hashtag "superlatepost" because it's honestly been quite a while since receiving it.. :D However, I'm talking about my very first chain card that started its journey in the middle of November and is now back home! I really like how the card turned out! It traveled all the way from Finland to Scotland, Hong Kong and U.S.A and then back to Finland. :)

And here's a card of another chain card project I'm in at the moment! ↓ The theme is "flowers" and I've now sent it to Japan :)

I've also sent and received a lot of mail, I'll talk about them soon! Love you!

Valentine's day!

Happy Valentine's day everyone!!

Yesterday I received one of the cutest mails ever, a Valentine's day card from my 7 years old cousin! I wanted to share it with you because I think it's just too adorable. :3 

The letter is addressed to 'Mellu and Mille' and I couldn't stop smiling when I saw it. Mellu is a stupid nickname that only my cousins call me and Mille is the name of my cat. Also it have been sent from Savonlinna which's short is 'SNL'  instead of 'SLN' which makes it way more adorable. :D 

And this is the card my cousin sent to me and my whole family, I love it! She even used a paper that has Russian text on it to cut the tree out because she knows I like Russian :'D

Hopefully you all have (had) an amazing Valentine's day! :)
