Happy Mail is here! πŸ’Œ You know I love sending h Happy Mail is here! πŸ’Œ
You know I love sending happy mail, so I'm excited to say that I'm participating in the #oneofmanypostcard postcard initiative.

How it works: I have 18 postcards handmade and cut from a single mixed media piece - swipe to see that - each one has my mark and my signature on the back. Just comment that you'd like to have one and then DM me your address. On or around the 26th of March, 2023 I'll mail it to you. Then, when you receive your postcard, consider what you would have paid or what you can afford and make a donation to a charity of your choice in that amount. Last, post a photo here and tag me so I know that your postcard arrived safely. 😊 

Many thanks to @shedstudio52  for sharing this with me and to the originator @johnapedder for coming up with such a great idea!
