Another New Project...but Blog related!

So I have been recently sending and receiving a lot of mail. Thanks to swap-bot and sendsomething.net, I have not had a lonely mailbox as I used to have. And its nice meeting people through the art of letter writing.


I just got a nice card from my aunt Jane where she said," Letter writing is one of the last arts out there still that hasn't changed, but it is losing it's popularity."


I agree with her. I love getting mail! And it makes my day when I get a random postcard or note from someone new or old!


So I decided to do a Week in Amelia's Mailbox every week. I'm going to try to do it every Sunday (as my schedule can get crazy, we'll see!) But this way I can show the beautiful cards, letters and objects I get from all over the world! And I'll also be showing what I am sending out for the week!


And if you want me to send you something, just send me your address and something will be on your way very soon!


Have a great week all!

Kiwi's Blogger Follower Swap #3

Welcome to my blog!


Even though I have just recently been introduced to blogger, I have found it an outlet for me.


I hope you enjoy my posts :)

The Beginning of a Crafter

So, my friend ryuluna has gotten me into crafting. And it has been GREAT for me! I found almost automatically that my stress levels have fallen. The first thing she introduced to me is swap-bot which allows one to swap different things with people all over the world. Though I have mostly done postcard and email swaps, I have also started journaling. I am currently hosting a swap for lyric journaling and I am also experimenting with one called a "Multiple Personality Journal." I started that one tonight with my first entry in it with the personality of a fairy that is rather angry...and sarcastic :) 


Luna first showed me the love for guerilla art with Wreck this Journal. I have come to start my own journaling through that. Here are some of my entries into my current journal.

This page was with help of some friends. I posted on Facebook, "How have you changed the world?" and I wrote out some of the responses that I liked. I have plans of asking this question often.

What a fun day! I was a member of Human Scrabble!

I drew this in about 10 minutes. It was one of those draw, and see what happens kind of pages. I find it beautiful even though others may not. This page has a lot of meaning to me.

How I began my journal. The note says to buy something inexpensive as a symbol as you need to create. And I said this journal was what I bought.

Luna has also taught me how to crochet and I have made a scarf. Though it isn't perfect, I still wear it proudly.

I feel there is much more of me to come with crafting.
