a different kind of snail mail....

hi! a bit ago my buddy, future band mate & roller rink/ bar co-owner, alicia from so paurve asked if anyone wanted to be her pen pal and i of course signed up! i told her i wasn't super great at being a pen pal, i actually really hate writing because as i write my handwriting gets less and less legible so i told her to make up for it i would send her special hand made drawings in the form of a post card....this was the first one!
i have a couple more roughly sketched out and will show you once they are complete and sent out! sending mail out has never been so fun!

xo,

    Supercute. Thank you so much for thinking of my wife and making/sending her something so special. Things like this really make her day.

    awesome! I started a blog event/series a little bit ago called package pals where I set bloggers up from around the world and they send eachother packages with things that represent them and where they come from. :D Our "party" is coming up in two weeks and I'm SO excited. :) It's so fun to be able to connect with bloggers outside Blogland. :)

    That is so awesome!! I want one. haha Hope you're having a great day. I'm home on my lunch break, throwing some pork chops in the slow cooker so Jake will have something for dinner and I won't have to do anything tonight when I'm tired and my feet hurt.

    I friggin love this - you have mad skills! I saw it on So Pauve's blog as well:)

    I decided to become Alicia's pen pal too - perhaps we should get some kind of pen pal circle:D

    How nice! I bet alicia is a great pen pal. Also I love your drawings...especially when they contain curse words.

    cristie, omg!!!! from the perfectly placed ponies (who wouldn't want a pair stallions to rise up from out their chest!) to the little nibble on her neck, this is awesome! love the idea of turning the pen pal theme on it's side and choosing drooring as your form of correspondence. i can't write worth a ding dong and think you are so totally brill. she's one lucky gal, i'd hang this beaut with pride! xoox ♥
