Sunday evenings are the best for blogging, letter writing and the like. I find that sitting down to write while listening to classical music soothes the soul and gets the creative juices flowing. I wanted to talk about decorating letters today. Like most of you, I adore trying to find the cutest and most decorative stationery out there but I must admit that I rather like decorating my own paper and making unique forms of stationery.

Another form of decorative stationery is hand-made cards and I have seen some really gorgeous ones out there! I have a limited amount of resources right now so I make cards with what I have on hand. Here is another example from my other blog:
 |
| I made this one a while ago using up scraps of paper I had around. To see more images click here. |

| Here you can see that I've used stickers to decorate plain white envelopes. |
 |
| Here you can see a couple of the stickers I've used. These were actually images I'd printed myself onto sticky full label paper. Aren't they lovely? Home printed stickers! |
 |
| Sometimes I decide to get even more creative and include drawings in my letters...this one unfortunately never reached it's destination, it has been lost in transit...hopefully someday it will reach it's intended recipient...sigh! |
So, those are just samples of what I've done...how about you? How do you like to decorate your letters? Do you make your own cards? I'd love to hear from you!
Lots of love,
Nadia Marie
