Unboxing paperwrld soft and cozy box 🎁

I'm left handed like both my mom & dad. When I was 5 I broke my left arm. I was curious about a spider web in the climbing rose wrapped around a trellis my dad had built. I climbed it. It broke and I fell 5 feet to the stone pavement below. The cast on my arm extended from my fingertips up above my elbow. So I went right on using scissors with my right hand! And I still do. My mother told a story that when she threw away junk mail I would go dig it out to look it over. So paper was a theme for me from an early age.

Spring is arriving — and so are new textures, colors, and materials 🌿 If you had these in your hands right now… 💬 What would you create? A journal spread? A scrapbook layout? Wax seal details? Let’s imagine together ✨ #SpringInspiration #StationeryLove

This is what I got with the voucher I won! I love everything! There was a bit of a surprise for me in this one. One of the paper collections actually has a photo that I took myself and uploaded to Unsplash. It was such a fun surprise to find it! The photo is of a copy of Pride and Prejudice with dried red roses and my grandmother's teacup.

I write letters and send them through snail mail because everything about it brings me great joy. BUT last week I received 3 letters from friends...old and new. My heart burst with happiness to receive and to know that other people in my life enjoy corresponding this way as much as I do.
