Van Gogh envelope, ripped
This wonderful handmade envelope (containing a wonderful letter!) came from the lovely Queenie and the Dew. (She blogged about it when she sent it, too.)
Alas, do you see the rip in the bottom?
Maybe this angle shows it better.
Here's a nice bottom rip view...
...aaaand one more. Fortunately the letter itself and one of the fun inserts (a flying butterfly, which for some reason I forgot to photograph) arrived safely, but after reading the letter I learned she also enclosed a pencil. Maybe it was the rigid object in the sorting machines, but the pencil escaped through the rip somewhere on its transatlantic journey. Oh well - the letter was lovely!
On the back was this AWESOME kitty sticker, one of those that changes views depending on your angle/perspective.
I think the kitty-looking-up view is the cutest of them all.
I leave you with kitty in double vision. Happy Saturday!
