Hi all, today I thought it would be nice to create some 'happy mail' goodies, including decorative envelopes and mixed media tags. I know we can't all get to a post office at the minute, but these can be saved to use after we come out of lockdown.

I have used the gorgeous goodies from the April Lollipop Box entitled 'My Secret Garden'. I love this month's box so much, so vibrant and fresh for Spring and just what we need to cheer ourselves up during isolation.

I thought I would try something different this week: Concertina Jacobs ladder style journaling cards to be placed in a tin. These make perfect gifts for Mothers Day or Valentines Day. I wanted to make my sister something to document her year. She has just moved in to a new house with her boyfriend and I thought these would be perfect for adding a quick photo or comment to for each month.

I have a treat for you all today, a review and giveaway of this fabulous planner by Clever Fox.  I was lucky enough to receive this beautiful A5 rose gold weekly non-dated planner to review from  https://cleverfoxplanner.com it is so pretty. I already use one of their weekly planners myself as my blog and You Tube planner. ​

Disclaimer: I was gifted a planner for myself and one to giveaway. Competition now closed.

I thought I would try something totally different today (for me anyway)... making my own paper paperclips.  The finished result is definitely a triumph and I will be making more, they are perfect for your planners and journals or as a cute gift.

I have used a variety of different papers that came in this months Lollipop Box. These papers are actually perfect for this craft as they are just the right thickness. (Disclaimer: I received this box as part of my Creative Team role).
