http://scribblingsarah.blogspot.com/2015/02/smiles-sent-saturday2282015lettermo.html
February 28, 2015. Smiles Sent Saturday 2/28/2015 LetterMo. The last week of A Month of Letters Challenge. Was great for me I sent over a dozen pieces of mail! This envelope went to an aunt in an area of the country getting having a hard winter, so for fun, I sent an extra copy I had of the childhood book The Tough Winter. It's about rabbits and other woodland animals making it through a "tough winter," hence the envelope decorations. Then sealed them with different tapes. The name “Smiles Sent Sat...

February 21, 2015. Smiles Sent Saturday February 21, 2015 LetterMo. Another busy mail week with A Month of Letters Challenge. I was uninspired a little bit at times, but other times it really just flowed! I managed to get out mail every day the mail was supposed to run-although one day it had to sit in the mailbox and wait due to winter weather. This is a frog themed envelope I made for a friend who likes frogs. This is the front of envelope holding a get well/encouragement card. I like the little frog.

Sarah's Scribblings: May 2015

May 9, 2015. Smiles Sent Saturday May 9, 2015. Well, I haven't been posting much, in part, because I've been busy preparing to visit a lot of the people I normally only get to "send smiles" to! But here's a few envelopes I've decorated lately. I'm really enjoying using vintage stamps to get just the right one for the envelope! This one is to go with a card with a squirrel on a similar tree. This card was red and yellow with sunflowers and lady bugs. A play on "April showers bring May Flowers".

Sarah's Scribblings: December 2014
http://scribblingsarah.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
December 27, 2014. Smiles Sent Saturday 12/27/14. Mailing cookies to a few dear, but far off family members has become a tradition the past few years. This year we went simple-flat rate boxes! 160;But we jazzed them up a bit with stencils. We also packed the cookies in oatmeal boxes and cushioned them with pages from Christmas catalogs to make it more festive. Last year we went all mail themed:. Card and matching tissue paper. This is the general idea of how the box was to look. December 25, 2014.

April 4, 2015. Smiles Sent Saturday April 4, 2015. I finally took the plunge and tried mailing something entirely "outside the box" last week. And the report is.it worked! It was a filled Easter egg. This is it empty. I picked it up a few years ago on clearance at CVS. It had some sort of candy.maybe M&M's which we used at the time. I'd been planning to mail it, but just finally go around to trying it this year. The name “Smiles Sent Saturday” de. Saturday, April 04, 2015. Labels: 13 oz or less. Please f...

Saturday, September 20, 2014. Today I was blessed with a box of crocheted facecloths for shoe boxes! Mrs E Wiebe, from our congregation, saw a blog post I had made about learning to crochet so I could make some facecloths for shoeboxes. She has been faithfully sitting by her husband's side as he has been in palliative care at the hospital for the past few months and to fill her days, she's been crocheting. Today she dropped off 90 facecloths! Thursday, September 18, 2014. They come in a small pail with a...

Friday, March 21, 2014. This last week I received a generous donation from a lady in our church. She and her husband were moving to a smaller house. She has various collection and one of the items she has collected over the years is beanie babies. Not having as much room in their new house, she parted with some of her collection (23! And donated them to be used in Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes. Thursday, March 6, 2014. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.
