Mail it Monday - 2nd Anniversary!

I know a few of you have not started an Instagram journey, but that's okay.  I'll share a bit of the news here, too!


Kimberly Crawford - For the Love of Paper - has been on a mission!  A mission to mail those cards we all make!  She's spreading the word on Instagram, and celebrating her 2nd anniversary - YAY!  I've been so inspired by her example, and try to have at least one card in the mailbox on Mondays... often more!  I've shared Kimberly's link so you, too, can be inspired by Mail it Monday!

Today, these cards will be sent to a few broads, I MEAN to friends abroad!  Which is something I try to do often.  It's so much cheaper for a Global stamp, than an airline ticket anywhere! Even though I'd love to travel to meet them for reals!  I'm keeping the destination a secret - you'll just have to wonder - will they be heading Down Under?!


Both made with the cute MFT Fish you were Here set
of stamps, and dies!
 


You might have noticed another new
cover-plate ... I just cannot resist them!
This one, from Lil' Inkers called
Quilted Stitched Spirals is TOTALLY CURRENT!
great for blowing leaves, oceans currents, or for snow storms!

If you do enjoy an Instagram browse, do follow me over to @kimberlystamps or @mailitmonday
[follow me too please @mfergu01].

Have a splendid Monday - and don't forget to get a stamp on it!!

    Already following you everywhere Michele
    That's so wonderful to be sending out those cards. I wish to do so too more often but am unable to.

    How did I ever miss Kimberly's campaign...I thought I already followed her. I do now and @mailitmonday, now. What a fun & terrific idea just like both of these cards. And, yes, I did notice the background cover die. Off to shop, you little enabler, you.

    Fabulous cards for overseas friends. So creative. I am pretty good about mailing my cards. 40 cards hand delivered 270 mailed so far this year. I don't mail weekly but maybe twice a month in batches.

    Awesome in every way Michele. Love that cover die. Have had it in my stash for a bit. Yep, it's a keeper. And your cards! Oh goodness, LOVE! I'm sure your friends who are far away will really appreciate your thoughtfulness! Big hugs!

    Darling cards that are meant for 'whenever', Michele. I do mail cards but only birthday, get well, sympathy and prayers. Those are the stamps I have. Maybe I should branch out and stay in touch. I'm loving that cover plate and the one you used the other day. I may have to invest. They add great texture to a CAS card.

    I really need to mail "just because" cards. I'm good about sympathy, thank yous and of course, birthdays but not so good about miscellaneous cards. Yours are beautiful!

    Another awesome cover plate! I love how you created the ocean scene with all those adorable fishes and curved sentiment, and your shaker is super cute, Michele! I'm sure the recipients will be delighted...Way to go, my friend!

    Both cards are so cute, Michele! Love the stitched spiral cover plate. It totally looks like oceans currents.
    The way you stamped the longer sentiment is so clever!
    I should mail out my cards more often!!
