I participated in Fab's Secret Penpal Scavenger Hunt again this year. My victim was Michelle. Her blog, Seaweed Kisses is one I've been following ever since I started getting into snail mail. Definitely worth to check out! Click here to check out what I received from Andreia (Filateliaa).

I sent her 5 packages, a gift and of course a letter. Let us see that up close.


» the journaling kit: an owl notebook and a handmade notebook for Michelle


» the mail art kit: handmade stationary, used stamps, stickers and a collection of washi tapes.


» the happy day kit: with fake mustaches, a sesame bar, a face mask, a little umbrella to put in a smoothie (or cocktail if you will) and a lucky doll

» something quirky: I got a big paper easter egg with colorful dots all over it, but unfortunately I forgot to take a picture...
» something that represents me (and you!): I made Michelle a colorful tea wallet (with a super cute button, right?) because she said she liked tea so much and included four - hopefully unknown to her - kinds of tea.



» a letter


» a gift: I found this polkadot envelope map and colorful stationary goodies that I thought she would like.


I hope Michelle likes what I picked out! I had a lot of fun collecting all these items and wrapping them nicely, so this is definitely something I want to do for years to come! Thank you Fab for organizing yet another successful edition!

I participated in Fab's Secret Penpal Scavenger Hunt again this year.

Today I want to share with you what I received from the lovely Andreia from Filateliaa. You can also check her out on instagram.

I decided to try out something I've never done before: make a little film! It turned out quite blurry and suuuuper unprofessional, but I'm still learning guys. Anyway, I received the most lovely gifts and feel blessed for having such an amazing secret penpal. Thank you so much Andreia.

ps. Excuse the cat paws from time to time. They were a bit curious as well!



Take care! Talk to you soon!

Hi guys!

A few weeks ago Fab hosted the secret penpal scavenger hunt on her blog, and I decided to participate. I had so much fun finding stuff that I thought my secret penpal would enjoy. But I'll show you what I sent her later, because I don't think she has received it yet..

What I received? I can barely start describing it. My penpal Jenni, from Finland, surprised me with this giant package.


Here's what I found when I opened it:


Jenni sure did an awesome job. An amazing amount of stuff, everything was beautifully wrapped and so me! She got me a:

city explorer's kit: with tips and a guide for Tuusula, Helsinki, and an activity book. I SO want to visit Finland now!

postal freak's kit: with notebooks, postcards, loooots of stamps, stationary, labels, and lots more!

bad day survival kit: with tea, beauty stuff, instructions to bake some cupcakes, a pretty bird garland, a kaleidoscope ♡, chocolate from Finland, ...

something you can wear: a pair of mittens, two pairs of socks & two glitter cat masks (yep, like the one I'm wearing on the first photo!)

something not square or rectangular: a pretty heart hanger

something with animal(s) on it: like, ehm, ALL THIS OWL STUFF!!





Yep, you could say I got spoiled. Big time. I'm a happy gal.
Thank you so much Jenni, for all the time, effort and love you put in this package. ♡ I'm going to have a ton of fun with all these items for a loooong time. :)
