My desk had been cleared but suddenly I have four in. Time to ink up!
Re: Did You Correspond Today?
These days, I wrote a letter to my grandsons (6 and 10) to explain them a "secret language" to write and correspond with eachother and their friends.
So, they are forced to write with a pen or whatsoever, but not with a phone or tablet!

Good idea. I never thought of that. Is there a kind of size guide? I mean if I wanted to make an envelope for A4 sized sheets, that are going to be folded in thirds, what size paper do you use? Does that make sense?

You can use A4 sized paper to make an envelope for A4 sized sheets, but you would have to fold them into quarters. If you want to make an envelope for A4 sized sheets folded into thirds then the paper for the envelope has to be bigger than A4 for the width. There are plenty of online guides for making envelopes.

Yes. And yesterday. And the day before that. I bought $100 of vintage stamps last week to fuel the habit. When there's a lull, I can always turn to Postcrossing, where I can max out at 26 travelling cards at any one time (though I'm usually 5-10 cards).

$100 of vintage stamps? Wow! That is impressive. :) Hopefully, I might see some :)
