even more Amsterdam to Amsterdam. This time from my dear family friend Karin in a beautifully written envelope, she buttoned buisiness-cards with great tips on a string (nice idea) , I got a ticket for the FOAM, a birthday card with paper clips with my age, paper harts, labels, a collage of her life and a braided bracelet.

from across the street


I think this letter had to travel the shortest distance of all. It only had to cross the street. From my dear friend an neighbor noelle I received a package intended for hot summer nights: a handmade booklet with bbq recipes and another with recipes for desserts, poetry pictures of vegetables :-), a photo of our families having diner together on the lawn, a fill-in-book to discover your neighborhood (I will certainly do) and mixed spices for turkish meatballs. I will use it all when the weather in netherlands will become better.

An Amsterdam affair

Everything about this letter is Dutch. Sender, receiver and theme. The Netherlands have a new king who was inaugurated on the 30st of April. A glorious day and good vibes in Amsterdam throughout the whole week.

This letter didn't have to go far. From Amsterdam centre across the water to Amsterdam North.

From Hollande To Québec


Mon 1er Sweet Post arrivé à destination. Merci Noëlle c'était vraiment super, j'adore ! Très typique de son pays de la Hollande, ce style qu'elle a choisie. Je me suis régalée en dégustant le cake, un petit biscuit et le thé. Elle a inséré une recette de gâteau aux pommes, faut croire que son petit doigt lui a dit que j'adorais ce type de gâteau. Je vous partage quelques photos prisent sur le vif et les mots de Noëlle sur le papier.

My first Sweet Post arrived. Thank you Noëlle it was really great, I love it! Very typical of the country of Holland, this style she has chosen. I really enjoyed tasting the cake, a biscuit and tea. She give me a recipe card of apple cake, I guess that's a little bird told her that I loved this type of cake. I share with you some pictures taken on the spot and some words from Noëlle on paper.

how to make an envelope from a magazine

take an envelope and tear it open, place on top of the image, trace, cut, fold and past the sides, ready!

put a sticker on the front where you want to write the adress.
I made these from a free supermarket-magazine and ronin made one from his drawing
