Atlas Packet Thangs.

Hello my darlings. All my exams are over now! YAY. I would like to thank you all for your patience. As well as writing a bunch of letters, I have been busy making these beauties (pictured above). They are made of an old road atlas, sewn together at the edges and a label was stuck on the front. I'm going to use them for sending tea and other little goodies. :) I have made about 600million of them, so anyone I write to will probably receive one soon.

I'm sorry about the length of the post but I'm currently finishing off a few letters then I will do a another post showing you my incoming and out going mail.

I LOVE YOU ALL. xoxo

EDIT; HOLY CATS, how do I get rid of all this underlining nonsense? Help? Please? D:

Mail & Fail

Hello! It's been WAY to long, since my last post, but yeah, you guessed it exams and coursework have taken up all my time. I can't wait for the summer to start, then I can blog all I want! First I shall start will my incoming and outgoing mail.

Incoming:

One: A lovely first letter from Caitlin. I love love love the pretty drawings on the front of the envelope.

Two: A beautiful postcard from France.

Three & Four: I won Megan's little give away. The prizes were a lovely print of the Eiffel Tower. Which is hanging very proudly on my wall. And three beautifully made atlas envelopes.

Outgoing:

One: A reply to Megan in a brown paper envelope.

Two: A reply to Caitlin. The envelope is made from an French children's book.

Three: My first letter to Gemma, my first pen pal who actually live in England!

Four: My stuffed envelope for Mike Me At Mikes, Envelope Project.

Oh and yes I know I failed the 30 day challenge. Do I care? Not really. It was incredibly boring, and after the second day I realised what a bad idea is was. But I have learnt a lesson from this. I am never, ever going to do something like that again. Never.

Once again I am terribly sorry for my lack of posts. But it should get better soon, I only have three exams left for this school year. WOOOOOOOO.

30 Day Challenge- Day 03

Bonjour my little buttercups! Today's topic for the 30 day challenge is 'Your Favourite Television Programme'. I don't watch an awful lot of tv, so this isn't hard at all. It is a E4 show called Misfits.

I'm not to sure how to describe it so here is some information I stole from wikipedia about it.

'Misfits is a British live-action superhero comedy-drama about a group of young offenders forced to work in a community service programme, where they become imbued with supernatural powers after a strange electrical storm.----The programme can be classed as a teen drama, because its main characters share at least superficial commonality with those seen in Skins and several of John Hughes' films, notably The Breakfast Club----Misfits follows five teenagers on community service who get struck by lightning and are given special powers. Kelly (Lauren Socha) becomes telepathic, Curtis (Nathan Stewart Jarrett) can rewind time, Alisha (Antonia Thomas) can send people into a sexual frenzy when they touch her skin, and Simon (Iwan Rheon) can make himself invisible. Seemingly left unaffected is smart alec Nathan (Robert Sheehan), although his power is revealed in the sixth episode.'

It's a bloody good programme, so if you ever get the chance to watch it go for it! I also like Skins and the Inbetweeners. Although the last series of Skins wasn't very good in my opinion. :/

30 Day Challenge- Day 02

The Hangover

(500) Day's of Summer

Amelie

Romeo& Juliet

All the Harry Potters! (I once watched all the Harry Potters out so far non-stop. It finished at something ridiculous like 5 o'clock in the morning. Needless to say, I was a zombie the next day.)

Both Narnia's.

Dodgeball

Both the Bridget Jones films.

Valkyrie

Atonement

Thunderpants (legendary film, love it.)

The Notebook

Pretty In Pink

The Breakfast Club

Day 01- Your Favourite Song

I'm pretty sure they decided to start with the hardest one first. I go through phases, and there isn't one particular song that stands out for me. So I'll just say the one song that I can't stop singing. It is Dance Anthem of the 80's by Regina Spektor. It's a lovely cheerful song, from one of my favourite artists.

I love the video. It's just so fun and her, and not any fancy camera tricks or a bucket load of make up on. And of course her beautiful voice! I would do anything to sing like her.

I can't wait to read your replies!
