Happy Mail: Postcard Dance Party
Do you love to get Happy Mail too? I think most people would be happier if they got more happy mail. Around here it’s soon time to send out our DIY Postcards and let them become Happy Mail. But until then, let’s have a dance party. Since yesterday was my birthday I’m inviting you to join me in this wee dance party before we head out to the post office at the end of this week…
After I made the Crazy Hat Party video I decided to give stop motion another try. I’m hooked, it is SO fun to see your images move around on the screen. This one turned out a little better in terms of light and movement, although it’s very short and kind of silly. Well, very silly. It’s about getting the right hat, but also about loving yourself and having a dance party on your own if you need it…
Plus, I'm the master of handmade postcards as you already know, just look how it dances on my table…

Here’s two of my finished postcards:
And this bonus card, already gifted to my cousin who got a little boy recently:
Hello mama!
Here’s the Happy Giraffe Postcard:
My favorite in this bunch might be the skunk one, because he is so cute:
I hope you had a lovely Easter. We had snow, so I mostly stayed inside, but that’s good too.
I host a swap of handmade postcards on my blog. You make 10 postcards and get 10 back, so get creative and then get happy mail! Join in at ihanna.nu/postcard-swap
Happy belated birthday, Hanna! Hope you had a fun day! Your video was super cute. And I was so happy to recognize the background paper you used for your adorable baby card! Glad you were able to have fun creating with it! Thanks for sharing more of your postcards with us!
Thanks Arielle, it was a great birthday this year. So happy you liked the little stop motion video. I’m sure I’ll give it a try another time because even though it’s a lot of work, I think it’s fascinating to see “stuff” like this come to life. :-)
