I love getting happy mail, little surprises stuffed inside an envelope that you weren’t expecting… But who doesn’t right? Happy mail is so right every day of the week. I missed the day light today to take photos of my pile of Postcards for the DIY Postcard Swap (yes, you can still join – as […]

The old fashioned snail mail way is blossoming in the generous and kind blogging world. I’ve received goodie bags and won giveaways, participated in swaps and I love it all!
Getting started with my DIY Postcards
I have started on my fall batch of DIY Postcards, and they’re going to be a fun mix of things (very mixed media) this time, I think. It feels like it’s been a long time since I created in this messy non-linear way and I had a lot of fun with this process. In case […]
Join iHanna’s DIY Postcard Swap 2019
Each year I host an international and easy-going mail art swap that I call DIY Postcard Swap. It’s a great way to get some happy mail, so I hope you want to try it out this fall. I think we all need a little pick-me-up as it gets darker outside and the trees start loosing […]
Opening up for Happy Mail
In my blog post On the Receiving End I showd a few of the postcards I got in the DIY postcard swap last year (you can still join today – don’t miss out!). Here are the rest from that lovely pile of postcards that I received: DIY Postcard created by Julia, who sent her postcard […]
On the Receiving End
So in the last DIY Postcard Swap, which was last year, I got a bunch of cool postcards and shared them as they came in on my Facebook page Studio iHanna, but not on the blog. So I thought I’d go ahead and make a blog post to show you what kind of awesome postcards […]

Give your own creativity time and power by deciding to be creative this month. Maybe a push in the right direction could be to sign up for my postcard swap? It will give you a goal of what to make and when to finish (end of May), and then it will continue to give in […]

Pink Happy Mail Opening
Life is tough, sometimes. You know what I mean, right? This autumn has felt particularly harsh to me. First my bike got stolen from outside our house where it was locked, then a month after that I got my smart phone stolen. And I know things like this happens all the time, and it could […]
Late Fall DIY Postcard Swap 2018
Fall is late around here this year. I think it’s because of the very hot summer we had, and then we have had rather pleasant weather in August, and September too. I’ve not even worn my jacket yet, so I just haven’t felt like it’s turned autumn yet… But by looking in my calendar of […]
From the Scarlet Letterbox
My blog friend Natalie of The Smallest Forest, whose amazing art and creatings I’ve written about before wanted to start a new “thing” this year and came up with the idea of offering her readers, fans and all interested a letter subscription. In her letter subscription you get one handwritten beautiful letter once a month, […]
Printed Postcards from my Art Journal
I took some artwork from my art journals and made printed postcards. They turned out very beautiful, and even though I want to keep them all, I have a few copies of each one. So you can grab yourself a pack right now, if you’re fast… I am thrilled with the result, and the whole […]
