About Me

*** (2024) I don't know what is going on with the mail lately. I have had more mail sent back to me this year than I ever had in my many years of Happy Mail writing --- damaged or for no reason at all or even for not enough postage despite mailing it from the local post office!!! It's been frustrating! My apologies for any "late" swaps. I cannot control what Canada Post is doing with their system (wouldn't that be nice if we could?) If things are taking longer than a 3 weeks to get to you, please send me a message. If I get things returned, I will let you know. ***

Hello from the We(s)t Coast of Canada! I live here with my husband, 5 kids and 3 cats and am, what you call, indoorsy (despite living by the ocean and the mountains). I love writing, creating, reading, napping, drinking tea, and listening to music and dancing in my living room. :) My favourite things to do is to make cards and send snail mail! I have been penpal'ing for years in the traditional sense (writing long letters) and find an absurd amount of happiness sending things! I am a positive encouraging person who loves to make people smile! :)

happymail

**my daughter has an account as well and we live together, so if you come across both of us and wonder about the same addresses, that is why! She and I are similar, but you will quickly see we have different styles and crafting skills! :)

Favorite Crafts

I love papercrafts and am a cardmaker (my favourites are working with rubber stamps, water colouring, and heat embossing ...see my IG page listed above) @tHartInk

Journaling is another favourite of mine ---traditional writing as well as travel -- I'm just getting into Junk Journaling and I adore all of the flips and folds and envelopes and collages etc etc... I get amazed at the artistry other creators have in their pages! I am drawn to shabby/ vintage/ romantic/ scrappy styles the most though.

If you are interested in creating pen pal letters or fold outs for JJs, my girl and I host swaps here: tutorialcrafters Check us out!

Books/Movies

My favourite book is Pride & Prejudice. I also love historical fiction (love Liz Curtis Higgs' Highland series) and have discovered Jaime Jo Wright (suspense mystery)

my favourite movies are the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Disney's Beauty & the Beast (animated and the live action) and the Sherlock Holmes series by Guy Ritchie.

I don't watch TV. Except for hockey -- when I can find a game. I'm a Canucks fan. :)

Music is the most important thing to me (besides snail mail!!!) I love listening to The Gray Havens, CityAlight, Imagine Dragons, Bastille, Tommee Profitt, Apashe and any music that has a strong beat and makes me move.

Likes/Dislikes

To be honest, I don't have a lot of dislikes and am not picky. Receiving mail is fun so don't stress! Whatever I don't use, I pass on.

Things that make me happy: (in no particular order)

*tea (white, herbal, earl grey)

*washi (the traditional kind not decorative tape)

*stationary/pens

*chocolate

*heart shaped things

*lettering

*black liquorice

*cats (don't hate me but I'm not a dog person at all, even though they're cute, lol)

*butterflies

*vintage papers (even faux handmade vintage)

*glittery/shiney things

*leaves

*Bible verses and quotes

*vellum

*flowers

*crochet ribbon & paper doilies

*Canadiana stuff (eg: Roots, old HBC)

*little pockets/envelopes for journals (like glassine)

*faeries and cottagecore

*Classic Winnie the Pooh

*homesteading (I dream of having my own small farm!) gardening, herbal medicines, apothocary, husbandry, self sufficient living, old wives tales

*memes

My favourite colour is yellow followed by grey, orange, and green.

WISH LIST: I would love *sari silk!! I have seen it on tutorials but don't know where to find any. *charms for dangles

If you speak a different language other than English, I would love to learn a word or phrase! Tell me about traditions or what it's like where you live! I love learning about other cultures and families!

I don't like vanilla or heavily scented things, horror stuff, witchcraft or ants or spiders
