Postcard Pretties

Hey lovelies! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I had a few questions in my last post about where I find my postcards and other stationery. So I thought I would dedicate this post to the places where I purchase them from.

I mostly get my postcards and other paper goods from Etsy. There are so many amazing stationery goods it's a little overwhelming. I love the girly, whimsical, and a little bit quirky postcards.





One of my fave shops is The Little Fox. I buy from her a lot. Plus I love her necklaces with her artwork too.  I sometimes find it hard to part with her postcards.




These postcards are from Art by Jaz. She's a local seller and I just love her stuff. 





These sweet postcards are from Stephanie Fizer Coleman. She has a lot of adorable paper goods. 





I love whimsical art like these from The Poppy Tree.



These lovely creations are by AFancifulTwist

There are so many wonderful Etsy sellers out there and this is just a sampling of the shops I adore. I like to support handmade when I can so if you are looking for any paper goods remember to check out these shops.

Have a beautiful and blessed weekend.

A little Shopping spree

Hello my loves. I hope you are having a great week. Mine is going quite well. I'm now a member of the Fitness First gym. There is one across the road from my workplace so I'm fairly motivated at the moment. 

As for the 52 Weeks of Mail I write a lot of letters and send a lot of mail so it's not really difficult but I don't send mail out every week more like I send in bulk every few weeks. I just have to learn to write more often.

On the weekend, Jason and I went on a little shopping spree (more like I did). These are just a few purchases.  


I bought these from Target. They are surprising comfy and I love them for work.


Kikki.K was having a 25% off sale so I bought these. Another journal, more notebooks, a stamp and pen, a notebook I will use as letter writing paper and a book belt for the pen. I love the range they have out at the moment. Very pretty.

 So I hope you are having a great week. I'm making paper bunting for my sister in law's baby shower. It's going to be a busy busy week!

Happy Things to end the week with

Hello my lovelies. It's been a pretty good week. We had the Wednesday off as it was a public holiday in Brisbane. It was for the Royal Queensland show or Ekka as it's known. Jason and I didn't go. We haven't gone in a few years but we had a really lazy day. We were supposed to have a picnic with some friends of ours but we cancelled it thinking it was going to rain and had dinner at their place instead (and it didn't rain sigh).

Anyway, I have been in the biggest shopping mood lately and went on a little spree today. I think I have made a decision on the pleated skirt and will go with the blue skirt. I usually always buy nude or coral coloured items and figured I should branch out a bit. Plus as part of my happy list I bought a coral pleated dress...


♥ My coral pleated dress from Forever New. (That came with a gold belt but I can change it up)


♥ Visiting Typo and finding a cute heart shaped chalk board (then realising I forgot to buy some chalk too). A few of these bits will be part of a giveaway I'm having soon.  


♥ Carrying this giant Kikki.K bag and lugging it on the bus. I got a lot of weird looks because this bag is nearly bigger than me. You can't tell in this photo. 


♥ Buying some cloth covered A3 boxes to store my stationery. Plus today they had a Happy Hour Special where you get more discounts (the reason I bought two of these).


♥ Just a nice note in the Kikki.K magazine/catalogue. How I feel about journalling.


♥ My lovely stationery goods from Kikki.K. And again some of these items might be in my giveaway coming up. 


♥ These tiny stamps are adorable and they come with some mini stamp pads. I haven't quite decided if this will be part of the giveaway yet :)

So this weekend will be full of washing clothes, writing and catching up with letters, doing my swap journal, lots of reading and relaxing. I can't wait! Have a fantastic weekend!
