I absolutely love stationary items! This is my second time reviewing Postmark’d and I was blown completely out of the water by the first box I received! Feeling pretty excited to take a look at their November box! Gratitude is such a needed practice in our culture. I personally find when I start the day with a bit of thankfulness the rest of my day is lighter, carefree, more joyful and I experience peace all day long!
Artsy Doodad
Gelly Roll Stardust pens capture the sparkle and glitter of stars to make your hand writing extra special.
Postage
Five $.49 letter stamps and five $.34 postcard stamps.
I love when a stationary box provides postage. This really takes all the excuses away from sending a hand written card!
Happy Thanksgiving
A set of 5 postcards that are perfect to acknowledge and thank those who have had an impact on your life! There are amazing details on both sides of these beautifully illustrated and hand lettered postcards.
Love postcards! I use to collect them as a teenager. It’s such a nice and simple way to send a quick thank you or letter of encouragement!
Tom Turkey
This gold turkey is a splendid card to share your gratitude for the friendship of someone special.
Such a simple design, but so effective! I would find the navy a little tough to write on, as the pen may not show up. You could use a gold gel pen, which would really pop!
Acorn
Send this fabulous autumnal letter pressed acorn to someone special to thank them for being a part of your life.
Adorable! I do like that this card isn’t 100% Thanksgiving focused, as Thanksgiving in Canada has already passed. This means I could send out this card this week and it would still be seasonally relevant.
Grateful for your Kindness
This gold foil card makes your note of gratitude just a bit more precious.
This is so precious! Again, it’s nice to have a card that isn’t Thanksgiving focused. I would love a pack of these cards, as this is the kind of card I could really use all year long!
Turkey
Send an unexpected something to someone special who makes your life magical, just like this card! This 2017 Louie Award winning card is sure to WOW!
So cool! It really was unexpected and I’m super glad I opened it up! I almost feel like I would want to use this as part of a table decoration haha!
Postmark’d Studio November 2017 – Final Thoughts
Love this month’s box! So very fun! Really liked the 30 day gratitude challenge. If you really aren’t sure who to send the cards to you could really write a gratitude card to yourself and then open them all next Thanksgiving! Sometimes it is so helpful to reflect back on the things you have been thankful for and the goodness once seen in your life. With Thanksgiving taking place this month for our American readers, I know I always want to have a hostess gift on hand when invited to those turkey dinners! With a bottle of wine, box of chocolate or bunch of flowers, any one of these cards would make the perfect touch for your host or hostess to feel super appreciated!
