FROM ANNELIES & CHRIS, OUR STRANGE NATURE.

Received from Annelies & Chris, ala Our Strange Nature in Belgium, April the 10.

I have got a new fantastic letter.
I invited Annelies & Chris, a couple from the amazing blog Our Strange Nature. Annelies have studied French and Russian and is right now studying to become a landscaping architect. Chris have a background in illustration as a graphic designer.

I really like following there blog as every post is interesting. Also they have a little collection of things they have done together like; Arts and Crafts, Projects, Trips ect. On a trip they even went to Denmark. Later this year Annelies is going to Peru, so I will send her some travel tips as I have been there several times, I even got married in Lima.

The envelop itself were a piece of art.
Annelies & Chris had made it out of fabric, so amazing and fantastic. I think they were both very happy when I received it, as it were the first time they have ever made an envelop like this.
On the backside the letter were neatly sewn together. So beautiful.

My beautiful letter.
I always find it exciting to opening a new letter.

In the buttom to the right there is a sneak peak of a postcard from the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. I don't know how, but they must know that I last year went to Amsterdam too, to visit the Van Gogh Museum.

Annelies have a community garden and she likes spending almost every Sundays there for growing vegetables and flowers.
I have a little balcony where I will plant my ruculla seeds and I already look forward to all the summer salads.

Old Belgium stamps.

Some of Chris' drawings and patterns. I like them and the one to the right reminds me of all the stitching in my embroidery work.

Part of an old book and the streets of Gent.

Dear Annelies & Chris, I want to thank you for your amazing letter to me. I'm going to hang Chris' drawings in my studio.

FROM CLAUDIA.

Received from Claudia in Austria, February 4th.

I like looking at other creative peoples blogs and this is how I found Claudia, also know as Wide Eyed Tree. I invited Claudia to participate in my little projects of textile letters, and luckily for me she accepted.
Claudia makes many nice things, among others crochet rugs, pretty envelopes and so amazing hand-carved stamp or stempel. These I am really in love with. Here you can see the work from Wide Eyed.

Claudia is a graphic designer and she knew since childhood she wanted to be creative and work with her hands.

The beautiful letter from Claudia full of Spring colors. Lovely!

This envelop and card is special, it is not that big, but it is so pretty.

A card and envelop made by Claudia with tea pots. I love the two light pink colors she have used in this design. When opening the envelop the logo of Wide Eyed comes, what a wonderful detail.

Another beautiful envelop by Andy Warhol.

Inside the envelop the colorfull card with greetings from Claudia.

A piece of textile full of Spring and happiness and a black/white card. I simple love the motif.

Dear Claudia, thank you so much for your amazing letter full of treasuries. Your envelop is hanging in my studio. I am so happy I have found somebody who likes moo minicard as much as myself.
